  1. Earlier they downgraded this from a hurricane to a tropical storm. Now it's back to being a hurricane. They are saying it is strong and wider than Irene was and we know how much damage they did to the Outter banks.

  6. How do you connect your laptop to the internet? If you use DSL or Cable that still requires electric.
    Some people use their phone to access the internet. Other have generators so they can keep things going.
    Sometimes these websites can help those that do have electric find out how they can help others.

    To a network this is running. If no network is running or you cannot connect to it, it doesn't matter if you have electric or not.
