I am watching a live webcam of Times Square and people are such IDIOTS.

People are laughing, screaming "whoooooo", people just don't give a damn. They really don't think this is a serious thing at all. There's a lot of police cars/vans turning their sirens on and off but there's only so much the police can do if people aren't willing to use common sense I'm afraid.

The wind seems to be picking up as the webcams starting to wobble.

5.00" of rain and counting. My highest wind gust so far was 60 mph.

Anyone got any idea where the "eye" of the storm is? Is it over New York yet? It honestly doesn't seem that bad on the webcams.. not too windy anyway.

You can buy them books and send them to school but a course in common sense does no exist for times like this. These people can only hope they live to learn.
