Cyrem Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Jokes aside, is anyone from RRU being affected by that storm in America? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Cupcake Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Sandy Bay as in LR2 Sandy Bay, right? Anyway, I'm nowhere near that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenyx Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 The main part of the storm just missed us, but we got caught in the tropical storm-force winds surrounding the main cyclone. The power was out for over an hour, but we have a small commercial-office natural gas-powered generator hooked up to the breaker box (which kinda makes it worse seeing as our appliances and computers were neglected in favor of powering the lights in the basement workshop, which are already rarely in use anyway).

Tracker Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Just wind and a little rain. The most damage I saw was a blown over sign and a fallen branch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pranciblad Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 All I know is that it got me off school to give me time to nurse this horrible cold I've caught. Who could have thought a little critter that looks like a bumble ball could cause so many aches and pains? It's like the butterfly effect, only not quite as ridiculous. Otherwise, it's not too bad over 'ere in Pittsburgh. We're too inland for most of these big storms to hit us hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
le717 Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I'm only getting the winds and colder air from Sandy. I said on the chat last night that I heard a sound like a gun going off, but couldn't tell exactly what it was. The winds had fallen a tree. Its all good, it was needing to fall anyway. EDIT: When I saw that title, I thought Cyrem had broken GAMEDATA.GTC and created a mod that put Sandy Bay underwater. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDoctor Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 My power flickered a bit last night and there are leaves everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Who's sandy? All trolls aside, no I have not been affected and probably will not, because note that I live in Morgan near salt lake, which is surrounded by mountains so any tornado/hurricane would be broken up. And the only way in is through a valley that leads to a highway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenyx Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 It's still somewhat windy here in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Tomorrow should be clear, although I worry about Chicago... This is the first recorded instance of a so-called "hypercane", in this case caused by the merger of multiple smaller storms, and also the first case of a tropical cyclone making its way that far inland without completely breaking up over the Appalachians. Although I kinda want to know what will happen when it reaches Lake Michigan, which is better described as a freshwater inland sea rather than a lake.
