Preparing for the storm

Um is that stop sign normally short, or is that already a diving pool?

It is a normal size stop sign.

Welp, flooding is already starting to be an issue and we haven't even seen any rain from Matthew yet. It has been unusually wet here the last week and almost everyday we have seen rain going sideways.
Here is the result of today's storm and it is still raining...
Just add Pontoons to your house and car, and you'll be fine. 8-)

@IRJ Normal for NY is 8 or 10 feet, so that thing is that tall, and already there is that much water...
. . . you sure you want to stick this one through?

That is adorable.

Latest track shows the eye will be closest to land where I live. We are in a mandatory evacuation. The experts are saying there is a possibility that out island will be completely under water.
If that's not scary enough. Jim cantore checked into a hotel room here

Wow

Best of luck with the storm. We were supposed to be headed to Jacksonville for a few days on Thursday. Looks like we'll be postponing until after the storm.

@IRJ Thats how we in Buffalo know we are actually getting a good storm when TWC shows up and you see Cantore on the streets

Might had better hitch a ride with him on the way out!

Who is Cantore?

What amazes me is the complacency in my neighborhood now. I am the only one boarding windows. It is unreal, people still have crap in their yard. We picked everything up last night, starting cutting wood and boarding window, packed all the food and water we will need, and clothing.
We still have a bunch to do today. I am at work this morning and I am hoping to leave by noon.

Probably the most famous storm chaser there is. He is the guy that is always right in the middle of hell.

@IRJ Why the hell would you go into work, unless you have to water proof work as a part of your job?

Luckily we use replication to another site, but we recently implemented that. We did our first initial testing on Monday which had nothing to do with Matthew (it was scheduled for months). It went ok, but we ran into some issues. So I guess we have a real test now.
-
@IRJ sorry, I had my real test last night, cluster went up in "smoke" around 10PM, and worked until 3:45 to get back to a workable state.
Waiting for vendors to call me to troubleshoot hardware / price recovery options.
I personally would like to go and just perform a clean install on the working hardware we have as a standalone server, and then when this second server comes up use continuous replication to that host.
But the hardware is acting weird, so gotta troubleshoot that.
