    Its extremely difficult to post, but i'll try my best to keep you all updated on info as to how Hurricane Sandy is effecting us. A few facebook pages are keeping me updated, but despite what they are wishing, i can already tell this is going to devastate not only the entire town, but the entire county and perhaps the entire state. The following pictures I post will be of the shore town I spend my summers in every year. Well, spent..

    Take it from me or not, but in my opinion this is going to be the most devastating hurricane in East-Coast history, and a national disaster.

    The following pictures were taken between 9AM and 11AM. The Tide is currently --Out--.

    My neighbors house is already under a foot of water.

    Looking into the bay.

    The view from the docks in the bay. The water has risen so high, again, during LOW tide, that they have broken on-top of themselves.

    The road leading down to the point. This is during --low tide--.

    A local pancake house where i would eat breakfast every morning during the summer months. Thats --Two Feet-- of water and the hurricane has not even mixed with tonight's astronomically high tide.

    A local salon, supposedly 3 inches of water already.

    Oh gosh, that flooding... ._. Reminds me of when our house and driveway flooded, but that wasn't even a hurricane or backlash from any.

    I'm seeing more and more disaster far from the actual hurricane, so I'm hoping my relatives on the east coast are prepared and aware. :/ Hoping people are staying safe from the gd hurricane.

    Yes, Burlington, Oakville and all those places will definitely be effected buy the hurricane. I live right in the dead center though so the hurricane isn't as bad here (Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge).

    Stay safe. BTW this is kinda irrelevant but Oakville kicked our inline hockey teams but they're pretty smokin' good xD
