My aunt and her daughter just drove a moving van cross country from WA to move my cousin into her new dorm digs... in CT. 
They arrived at 9 pm last night and spent most of today frantically getting her stuff into her room before the weather got worse.
My aunt's monday flight has already been cancelled and the roads are packed, so they are going to hunker down for the storm.

Not exactly the college send off my cousin imagined...

Oh... and my aunt's name... Irene.   :o

There is a text line in the upper left that you can type in an address

To zoom in, double click on an area , or use the mouse wheel, or use the scale to the left on the map.
To back out of zoom, use the mouse wheel or the scale.

To pan, hold-click to grab and move the map (it may take a couple seconds to re-draw), or use the round "button" with the arrows to the left above the scale.

On the right side, there are a number of things you can check or uncheck, and it will overlay a diagram on the map.

I just checked my cousin's University for the projected storm surge, and it looks like they are just out of the way for that.  'Though with all the rain, I don't doubt there will be some flooding from the drains overflowing.  And they will definitely be getting hit with high winds.

Missed a good opportunity to have some "fun" messing with Bump.  ;)

I watched a bit of Geraldo (I assume it was his show??) last night.  Bunch of reporters in different States.  Scary ship!
