Hurricane prep for nova
 
So this is for anyone without a garage and in northern virginia. Where are you guys keeping your car or what are you doing to prepare for the upcoming hurricane?

I do realize this questions been ask on the general forums, but i wanted to see if there's any place you guys park overnight or etc. Thanks

Park away from trees.

Not in NOVA, but I think I'm gonna head into Rockville and find a garage to park it before it gets bad. Trees are my main concern.

Does the lift need electricity to be lowered back down? :)

You should never leave a car up on a lift.................ever.

if there's risk of flood, I'll put my car on the roof of my house if I could, haha. as long as the car is tied down to the lift and the lift is bolted down, I dont see why not.


plus all hydraulic lifts have a manual override lower by default.

I parked the car at a vre parking garage. Overnight parking is allowed but "at your own risk." I was reading this on vre's site. The property itself is Fairfax government owned and I also read somewhere you can park overnight on ffx owned property.

Looking pretty good for me so far

Thought this was a hurricane meet


My driveway is pretty clear for the most part. My only worry is hail.

Glad I have a two car garage...

I am just going to think happy thoughts and be confident in my ignorance that there 100% chance everything is going to be just fine.
