I actually went out and bought water today, the big jug office water cooler sizes. First time in 30 years living on L.I. I had to laugh at all the folks buying cases of the 20oz sized Evian, Fuji and Poland Springs. I'm thinking they are not getting the concept that in 4 days you'll be using it for a bath.

I was/am a bit more worried about this one as it's really headed direct for Nassau County and I'm 3 blocks south of Sunrise in Freeport. I actually got a call today from what I think was Mango-Mango's office telling us that "everyone that lives south of Sunrise is in a mandatory evacuation zone". WTF !, first time I've every heard that one !. I'm not in a Cat 3 zone and barely in a Cat 4 zone so am staying put. Freeport's got it's own power system and we tend to stay up, crossing fingers...
