Let's keep safe and hope for the best here, boys. I don't know about you, but the back of my house is dense forest with tall, skinny trees at about 200'.

Stay safe. I really don't feel good about this.

 

good luck, i dont feel to great about this either

 

Hide your lip kits, hide your HIDS,hide your j-pipes, hide your TL's!!! Them trees is blowing everything out there!!

 

Fucking right mine will be in the garage.

 

hopefully it will blow out to sea....

 

Hide your CAI's! Dont forget bout that!

 

Leaving my tl under a nice hollow oak tree anyone have the number to progressive?

 

^ hehe funny

 

Lol.

This doesn't look good guys. I was reading and saw that Irene may mimic a hurricane that swarmed us in 1821. They said it helps us prepare in a way, but if it's equal to the devastation the past hurricane caused, it's going to be ugly.

South of Sunrise Hwy apparently is under 'elective evacuation.' I'm on the North shore, but I still have an uneasy feeling. I'm actually moving in with my girlfriend tomorrow; so I will have a great first experience in the new place

 

Good luck fellas, I wish we were getting it (TEXAS) we need the damn rain.

 

Be careful what you wish for, friend. It's just the start of hurricane season...

 

I'm having the lot owner (where I park) clear some trees and move his cars so I can park far away from any remaining trees on the property!

 

im definetly not in good mood about this hurricane Irene, hopefully dat shit doesnt cause major damage in our east coast

 

The situation is sweet and sour for me, sweet because my job is gonna be closed on Sunday yes!! and sour because I'm fucking worried about something happening to my car, the closest garage is like 4 blocks from my house.

 

my garage is in a real low-lying area, put my car ina storage unit, only other safe spot.

 

im glad i got myself garage but its low so i probably will put my car on jack stands lol

 

Car cover, top of hill, no trees in my parking lot lol

 

In my parking lot I pick the spot and got one in doors, so no water for my baby and I'm not moving her for nothing in the world. Going to work early tomorrow at 7:00 and be back by eleven, taking mass transit and back before they close it, good luck to all my Acurazine brothers.

 

Better hope there's no debris flying around

 

Dude where do you work? Lol I have a similar schedule as you for tomorrow ...err today... working at 6am back at 11, but I'm definitely driving I'm not taking no chances with the mta.

 

yeaaa. still trying to find somewhere to put the car for sunday when it gets nasty... I'm in a suburb neighborhood, trees everywhere ughhhhh... thinking about just throwing it in the big empty high school parking lot down the road... but i dunno if its gonna flood out or not... suckssss big time

 

^ not a bad idea. Find a hill and park on top so you dont worry about flooding

 

yea I'm not really worried about the flooding so much...(no hills around either)... but more of the debris and trees... but i guess whatever is gonna happen happens.. jus hope we don't see too much damage !!

 

I work in midtown 56 st and Lexington. Woke up this morning and said fuck that staying home.

 

^^^

But I need my glasses?!

 

Lol,that's exactly what people say, I was actually going to do some work at my own buisness, I have small cleaning company and needed to clean an office, this storm is causing me to loose money.

 

i know with my luck a tree wouldn't fall on my car only a stupid fucking branch and mess up my fender .. so i got a storage unit for 20 bucks for the weekend

 

Smart move dude, do not take any chances.

 

Well fellas it's like this, be safe make sure your windows are up. don't know bout y'all but i got me two cases of bud lime and a nice view of my car i'm good

 

Category 1 storm... Supposedly it's slowing down, my car still safe either way.. No risk taken here

 

Poor decision will haunt you in the future.

 

Looks like it only rained in uptown BX; still have water & power.

 

man this Bitch ass Irene is weak

 

No power out here on long island and its still windy as hell. On the flip side my car doesnt have a tree on it so we're good lol

 

Well after a 36 hour stretch of reporting the news to you all its finally over. I work for FOX5 and all i been hearing about for the past 36 hours is the bitch Irene. Thank god shes gone and in a couple hours ill be out of this damn studio and back home. Driving home last night from Manhattan to the BX, i had to hit the "red" button and change the ac into a boat (go go gadget boat) to get home. I left work about 230am right before the eye hit and it was rough getting home. Absolutely noone on the road. Bruckner was pretty much clear not to many puddles and i made it home ok. Woke up this morning to trees all over(throggs neck area). But no trees on my car. Nestled in my driveway i thought she'd be safe. Woke up to my rear window spoiler broken in half. Wind must have pulled it right off. So looks like ill be in the market for a new roof spoiler. But glad to hear shes gone and everyone is safe.

 

^ Damn!!!

 

You guys made it pretty good.. My TL was safe in the garage (first time I've put a car in there the 2 years Ive been here lol. We still have no power or cable But luckily I got my generator goin for the fridge and sump pumps lol.. Heres a youtube video of some asshole making fun of the National Guard for trying to help out.. This is 4 blocks from where my house is, but Im higher up so I didnt get any flooding. You can see that the water has to be at least 15 FEET deep..
Luckily I can tether through my iPhone lol.

NYC was lucky, other people were less fortunate. Count your blessings people.

^^ I was just about to say that. I hear people saying it was all hype and that the media blew it out of proportion but we just got fortunate, that's all.

And if they happen to announce another hurricane/tropical storm that's coming our way, I'll take the same precautions as I did for Irene. Better to be safe than sorry.

 

Yea alot of long island still has no power.. Luckily I got it back last night... And no damage to the car!!!

But a lot of people weren't as lucky!!
