the calm before the storm

I shot this two days ago in the home depot parking lot here in farmingdale. seems like I should have been inside buying  disaster preparedness supplies instead of photographing the sky. this morning my husband said the center of irene is supposed to pass right over the nassau and suffolk county border - right where we live! hopefully our electric will stay in service so I can keep you posted.
