We faired fine in Edenton. A stiff breeze and some light rain was all we got. Haven't heard all the reports from the outer banks yet, but, what I have heard hasn't been too bad.

My #1 cousin lives close to Portsmouth, NH.,
and works out of Logan in Mass.
He is ready just in case...
Hopefully no one suffers because of Earl!!!!

I'm 35 miles due north of Boston. We got a little rain, sometimes intense for short 10-20 min. bursts and very little wind. I saw maybe 20knots max for brief periods.

Everyone I have spoken to agrees there was more hot air before the storm from the media than ever showed up with Earl. Oh well; better safe than sorry, I suppose.

I'm down here in onset . . . 30 mph winds at most and typical summertime rain!! Poor newscasters having to make a 24 x 7 story out of dead hurricane.

Re: earl
 

here in va beach earl wasnt very impressive. which is a good thing.....

Re: earl
 

Yeah, our Tampa area weather men get a "woodie" as soon as the storm is named. Just kills them when it fizzles out to nothing serious....it's like they are no longer the star of the local news cast.

Re: earl
 

nothing here at newport which is good

just remember you will never make the news if you help an old lady across the street.....but got help you if you trip her!!!!!! :D
bad news and weather will always make the headlines even if it isn't completely true

Re: earl
 

Local news was still milking this thing this morning. Gotta make something out of nothing.

Re: earl
 

We went to the bar at 7:30 last night, closed the place at 2:00 and went home, by then it was all over. Week storm, rockin hurricane party with friends though! :cool:

Re: earl
 

We are on MV Mass. and downgraded it from an Earl to a Mr.Rogers. Had higher winds and rain last week. It did manage to turn off the fish for a few days. Got to keep the Weather Channel in business.

Re: earl
 

funny, I have a bunch of friends that are posting how dissapointed they are. Me, I'm happy we didn't get a direct hit, or the east wall. Course, back when I was surfing and living on Nantucket it was a different story. We prayed for them to come straight for us.

Re: earl
 

all the fun of the prep with none of the damage :D Blew harder in Chatham today than last night. Boats back in!

Re: earl
 

Plop, plop, fizz, fizz. Oh what a relief it is!! :D

See ya, Ken
