What is unusual about Irene is how slowly she is moving, and SUSTAINED winds for 20 hours at anywhere from 50 to 65 mph. That is a lot of wind over a long period of time. > > As long as my ATT air card can receive a satellite signal (and the power stays on), I will send updates during and after the storm for the Northern Neck.

S My dog has never lived through a Hurricane and this may produce some interesting results. My first question of course is where is he going to do his business? When we got socked with over a foot of snow two years, he somehow held it all in. Maybe dogs have an internal brain/bowel system.
