Here in Central VA they are advising everyone to tie down their porch furniture, etc., which I did this AM. I live on a country road about 10 miles from Rt. 460 and when the ground is saturated, the trees are blown across the roads around here. I have stocked up on water (always keep jugs of water), filled the washing machine (to flush toilets), and have independent gas cooking stove as well as a gas wall heater if needed. When I bought this place 12 years ago and it being in the country, I requested gas heat and gas cook stove. I can use the top for cooking as I can light it with a match, however, I can't use the oven due to electronic ignition and can't be lit with a match, which is fine. At least I can cook, make coffee etc., on top of the stove. I was raised in the foothills of Willis Mountain back in the sticks, so I am use to "camping" so to speak. Hate camping to this day. LOL Stay safe everyone.
