Heading off to NYC for the first day of a much-needed vacation in a couple of hours. After that I'm heading down to VA so I'm likely to miss most of this. I think it'll be a mess for a couple of days in NJ, NY state and possibly some parts of PA with a bunch of rain and a few downed branches & trees in New England but other than that its more media sensationalism. I'm not rearranging my vacation plans for it but will monitor it and make adjustments if necessary.

It's the run-up period to an election and the MSM is equal parts bored (since the campaigns are on autopilot now, no more debates or likely verbal gaffes) and frothing at the mouth wanting something - anything to whip into a frenzy.

It'll be rainy and gusty and a bit of a mess for some and some people will lose power but at the end of the day it'll be all forgotten in a week.

On the upside it'll hopefully get all the leaves off the trees so I can get my yard cleaned up next weekend and don't need to think about it again until spring. Thankfully I covered the pool.
