Not sure how many people are tracking this storm but it appears the
current estimations as of the time I have sent this email puts us dead
center of the projected path with estimations that it will be at a
category one level when it gets here Sunday(ish).

So it might be a good time to:
start looking at what needs to be secured
making sure all batteries are good
generator(s) are fueled
emergency supplies such as first aid, blankets, clothes, food and
water are ready and accessible.

I know that a category one is not all that strong so it looks to
provide a good opportunity to run through those emergency checklists
ie list above. However the 75+ mph sustained winds are a hazard to
antennas and trees so be careful!
