I have nothing to add, just saving a spot for the mayhem that may or may not happen. 🙂

You may want to drive (a 4x4) it may be faster, seriously. 🙂 The flight delays/cancelations are going to be insane

Amherst Emergency Services just posted on Facebook reminding people it’s against town ordnance to pile your leaves in the street because it causes the street drains to clog. I hadn’t really thought about it until I read the post, but this could be a real major issue in WNY since pretty much every side street I’ve driven down lately has had leaves piled at the curb, mostly in the street.

They were making it sound like the storm could stick around for a little. I could see that being the case. One storm from the west, the other from the southeast… both hitting one another with different directions will cause things to move out slowly. Best of luck!

That sucks, what did you do? I’ve taken a few good falls doing that. I remember learning and attempting a 180, screwed that up mid air and hit my toe edge slamming my self into the water. Hit so hard I ripped the bindings.

yep, catching an edge on a wakeboard SUCKS. I’ve done exactly the same thing numerous times.

I was grabbing a stalefish, held onto it too long and I think my dangling left arm just hit the water and got pulled the wrong way. It was a big air and grab though, I wish I had it recorded. The landing/impact was out in the flats. I was sooooo in the zone, then WHAM, yard sale.

OUCH!!! Yeah, doesnt sound fun. I’m disappointed that I’ve only had one experience with a boat with a tower. I loved every second of it and wish I could do it again. Sold the board and havent done it for a few years now.
