I will update as more info comes in.
Via WDEL:
Governor Markell orders a mandatory evacuation of coastal areas in all three counties in Delaware as the state prepares for a major hit from Hurricane Sandy.
The evacuation order begins at 8pm Saturday, giving residents 24 hours to get out of the storm’s path. All evacuations should be completed by 8pm Sunday. The state expected 50,000 people to be fleeing coastal areas. [emphasis mine]
This is shaping up to be a nasty storm. Everyone be careful out there.
Hmm… Governor stresses the word “limited.” Everyone got that? Which I guess means you can still drive and businesses can remain open.
