Why are hurricanes usually named after women? Because when they arrive they're wet and wild, but when they go they take your house and car.

To get back on topic...

Evacuation orders covered 1 million people in New Jersey, 550,000 in New York, 315,000 in Maryland, 300,000 in North Carolina, 200,000 in Virginia and 100,000 in Delaware.

"This is probably the largest number of people that have been threatened by a single hurricane in the United States," said Jay Baker, a geography professor at Florida State University.
2.5 million people ordered out as Irene nears - Weather - msnbc.com

President Barack Obama has warned people on the east coast of America to "be prepared for the worst", as what promises to be a "historic hurricane" is poised to wreak havoc throughout the weekend.
Hurricane Irene: Barack Obama warns Americans 'to prepare for the worst' - Telegraph

Looks like they are very well prepared for it.... Lets see what happens this weekend.
