    I just got a call from an agent asking if I wanted to haul generators from Indy to Chesterfield, New Jersey paying $4700/670miles is over $7/per mile. I would say someone is preparing for the worst.

    A lot of business owners learned from the last storm we had, they all have generators in their parking lots. It looks like our weather is really changing here in South Jersey, I guess weather like the Carolinas and Georgia will be the norm here soon with more and more dangerous storms. We didn't have a winter last year. Generator sales have soared in these parts.
