York bracing for worst of storm expected to hit overnight
Hurricane Irene pounded most of the East Coast Saturday, but forecasters at State College were sticking to the predictions they made for the storm's impact on York County.
John LaCorte with the National Weather Service said Irene was doing just as they had expected. The Category 1 hurricane was to bring 2 to 4 inches to the area between Saturday and Sunday, with wind gusts at 25 mph Saturday and picking up to 50 mph this afternoon.
LaCorte expected everything to have moved out of York County by early this evening.
The aerial coverage of the storm had stretched about 400 miles as it traveled up the East Coast, LaCorte said.
"It's going to knock down trees and wires easier than any other storm," he said. "It still has to be taken seriously."
The storm was expected to be off the coastline this evening and begin making its way through New England.
Residents prepare
York County residents had spent most of the week stocking up on supplies - emptying area stores of generators, flashlights, batteries, water and water pumps.
Blake Stough of Heidelburg Township has natural springs around his home and poor drainage. He was concerned Saturday that his basement would flood - something that happens any time there is heavy rain. He hoped his power stayed on and his sump pump could keep up with the workload.
Jamie Burkart of East Manchester Township also was prepared with a Shop-Vac should his basement flood.
Wayne Gross emailed that he had plans to take his wife, Dodie, to see Bill Cosby at the American Music Theatre in Lancaster on Sunday had been thwarted by Hurricane Irene. The event was to celebrate the Dover Township couple's wedding anniversary, but the show has been rescheduled to February 2012.
County poised to respond
York County spokesman Carl Lindquist said Saturday that the county's Department of Emergency Services would be staffed overnight and bring in everyone on standby depending on the need.
