We are keeping a close watch on hurricane Irene here at Hanks. We are right on the edge and a storm shift of 40 miles could mean the difference between receiving nothing but a little rain or loads of rain and high winds. All we can do is wait and see.
Our data centers for our website is located in New Jersey though right in the storms path. They have geared up and topped off all the backup diesel generators, arranged for emergency diesel delivery if needed and the data center will be manned during the storm. Hopefully with all the precautions in place interruption to our website will be minimal or nonexistent. We are as prepared as we can be so hopefully our site will stay up for the duration of Hurricane Irene.

It’s been 39 years since upstate NY had damage from a Hurricane. It was 1972 Hurricane Agnes. Now although uncertain Hurricane Irene is headed our way. It’s to early to tell as it could turn and miss us completely but with hurricanes it’s hard to predict. Hopefully it will be nothing like 1972 but time will tell. In the meantime I’m digging out the rain coat.

Wow...lots of snow
Well we got blasted last night with our biggest storm of the season so far. What started out as a heavy rain in the morning developed into a full blown old fashioned NY snowstorm that ended up dumping over 20 Inches of snow across our area in Upstate NY. This is what my friend Jeff was greeted to when he opened his garage door! He lives up on a hill and boy does it drift. I bet no sooner he got it plowed it drifted in again! For those of you in warmer weather we envy you today!
