We are expecting this storm too. We are only expecting 6-10 inches here on long island, but the wind off the shore is what does the damage here. The last time we had a storm like this we lost power for 24 hours. We have some of those shipping packs and hot water bottles ready to go. i like the overnight solution of putting my guys under the blankets in the bed. Hopefully it won't come to that, but all these suggestions are great to know, thanks
