<p>I live in the southern suburbs of Philadelphia, so I think that we will experience a direct hit from Sandy. So far, it's just raining steadily; however, tomorrow it's supposed to get much worse. How are all of you holding up and where are you all live on the East Coast?</p>
<p>I live in MA and it’s not bad here yet. But school’s cancelled 
so happy because I have so much homework to catch up on… I submitted all my early applications today just incase we lose power! Good luck with the storm!</p>
<p>Good, but not good. Here in Southwest VA, just rain, wind is expected tonight all the wya to Wednesday, so power outages will occur. I<code>m bad because I was hoping for no school; no dice so far, and we</code>ll probably go, but I<code>m hoping the heavy winds will sway the superintendent to cancel school. Heard VA Beach got hit pretty hard, but they</code>re OK.</p>
<p>@Soccersara122 I need to submit my apps too. If this storm knocks out the electricity, I will most likely not be able to make the University of Maryland’s priority date. Electric companies are speculating that power will be out for a week (Even though I doubt that our power company would let the power stay off that long when it supplies the 2nd largest city on the East Coast and its suburbs with power).</p>
<p>@CE527M I hope they’re OK too. DE, NJ, and NY are supposed to be hit hard. This is bad because they all have long coastlines. I hope they can stay safe</p>
<p>Do not give so much credit to the power co. A few years ago we were without power for a solid week.</p>
<p>Maryland- raining like hell, but we still have power-knock on wood. Schools are cancelled for monday and tuesday, which is kind of scary because I dont know whether they are going to push the quarter deadline back or not</p>
<p>It’s raining right now and the temperature just dropped. I have no clue what to do, we have extra food and water, lamps and a health kit. I’m so scared and so stressed out lol.</p>
<p>@Northeastlax I think they’re pushing it back, they better because FCPS always waits till the last minute to do things lol</p>
<p>@FutureDoctor…Yeah, I heard every school in RI is canceled.</p>
<p>…In NY (long island), there is actually nothing happening yet. No rain, no wind, nothing. Little eerie, when you consider it.</p>
<p>I think most of NY is closed tomorrow, probably even the stock market.</p>
<p>Yeah, I’m in suburban NY and there isn’t even any wind. It’s really weird. It makes me feel like all the anxiety’s for nothing.
Then again, that’s what I thought this time last year, when I woke up the morning after a calm snowy night to a power outage and fallen trees and electric lines 
.
The NYSE is open but only online. My dad’s really grumpy about that.</p>
<p>Speaking from Baltimore here…</p>
<p>Schools are cancelled for tomorrow. My guess is that we’ll have most of this week off. I just hope that UMD extends its application deadline and that I don’t lose power…we’ll see.</p>
<p>We’re expected to get hit with 80mph wind gusts + a foot of rain. Jeez.</p>
<p>LOL same hannah. He’s lamenting having to work on his supposed “day off” tomorrow. And I’m really happy: Columbia extended it’s ED deadline, so I don’t have a tremendous amount of pressure for Thursday. </p>
<p>Plus, maybe I could consider doing some of my work.</p>
<p>Here in Boston, it’s still not that bad as of 10:45 am EDT (pretty windy and foggy, but nothing “damaging”). Pretty much all public schools and colleges are closed today, and MBTA is suspending service starting at 2 pm.</p>
<p>NYC no school tomorrow!</p>
<p>CT- A lot of wind.</p>
<p>Winds are at about 35 miles per hour and it’s super cold outside. My butterfly bush outside my house snapped lol.</p>
<p>I live in CT. Winds are becoming really fast. There’s flooding already in my area. School’s been cancelled until Thursday.</p>
<p>And I still have work at 4.</p>
<p>Well - it’s really windy here - but not raining yet. It’s supposed to really pickup and hit tonight though.</p>
<p>They just cancelled school for tomorrow as well …</p>
<p>It’s getting scary out there! Somehow we still have power though…</p>
<p>In 2nd block they announced there were absolutely NO after school things (sports, clubs, etc) and then in 3rd block they announced we don`t have school tomorrow :D. High winds are coming in tonight and tomorrow with power outages.</p>
