We may still get plenty of wind and rain, and I’m counting on a three-day blackout, but Hurricane Irene won’t hit the district, Fairfax, Montgomery, Arlington, PG, or Alexandria. In fact, it looks like it only has a slight chance of hitting any of Annapolis.

Check out this cone-of-death update from NOAA. Or get an update here. Being outside that cone means NOAA thinks there’s basically no chance the hurricane will hit us.
