Jake will be cool. He's right on par with me when it comes to hurricane readiness. That's an innate sixth sense we have for being from where we're from. Knowing his knowledge of firearms, and ability to be generally badass, there's no worry. But if it'll help your feelings, I'm clapping for him, just to make sure he's okay. :3
Gas stations here have lines backed up for miles down the road. Looking into the sky, you can almost see the rings of the storm pass by every hour or so. Every station closes down at 5 now, and rations gas to 5 gallons per person.
He's fine. I'm talking to him right now.
Squee~ :3
EDIT: Just talked to him. He said he's fine, and TWC is exaggerating a lot of it. He's using a generator to get online, but his town is thrashed, he said. Yards a mess, power and phone lines out, but he's alive. He's not getting 20ft surges, more leik 10. It's not as bad as TWC says it is, but still not too great.
