Please, take this seriously and stock up. You can expect to be without power for 1-2 weeks with that sort of catastrophic damage. I would also recommend hammering plywood over your windows if you don't have hurricane glass, which I'm assuming is 100% of East Coast Canada. Just the wind gusts alone can break glass.

The last time I emerged after a cat 4/5 I saw giant trees uprooted and pulled across the landscape. Think of the force it takes to do that. Make your home a fortress, and stock it well.

Take care everyone.
Don't take my sense of humor as not taking it seriously.

It's projected to be 150-160kmh winds. So really Cat 1 when it gets here.

Still more than what we're used to.

We're ready for a few days without power. Both my folks and my wife's parents have generators.

A few more hours until the wind picks up. I'll try and keep you posted.
