I'll be spending part of my weekend erecting sandbag dykes to try to keep water out of my garage and workshop space. Will be moving the cars to a high and dry location.
I live about 475 feet above sea level so flooding isn't really a concern for me. But wind is. I lost a beautiful ornamental apple tree during Irene.
Good luck to you Jacob. Let us know how you make out.
