Yep. I'll be powering down client's servers and unnecessary equipment, powering down most of my mine and run the Innernets off my UPS(s) and laptops on low power settings.

Tie down grills and anything else that you can't move inside, and move everything inside that you can. That's about all you can do. Cat 2 force winds shouldn't break windows, but flying debris can, I guess. I won't bother. I don't know whether the old advice about opening windows a crack to "equalize pressure" is a wives' tale or not. I don't do it.

If you live close enough to the water to even wonder about being washed away, it might be a good idea to make plans to evacuate.

Oh, and stuff in the freezer? Won't do much good if your power is out more than a coupla days. Dry good, canned goods, that's what's good to have on hand. Stuff you can eat cold if you have an electric range, and no gas or charcoal grill.
