Avoid the northeast coast for travel Maryland

We are getting the snot beat out of us 100 yards from the coast. 30 MPH winds through tomorrow from the northeast. If you can go inland, do it.

A bit general in your warning. Your info says you live in Worcester, PA, which is NW of Philadelphia, not 100 yards from any coast. A 30 mph wind would be a gentle breeze in many parts of the midwest or west. Your suggestion that anyone traveling to avoid, "the northeast coast for travel Maryland." The only northeast coast of Maryland would be Ocean City? Where exactly should we all move inland to avoid these terrible snot beating winds?

I am now 50 yards from the beach, winds have passed 50 mph. The dune was breached at high tide, 6 campsites flooded. Luckily high tide peaked at 8: 07 pm, the entire beach got eaton by the sea. My awning is still up tho.

Snow fence erected last week has collected 2 feet of sand.

Keep safe, but it would help if you identified what beach you're talking about.

This awing is going to disintegrate @ 60 mph, and I just don’t care. the anchors will stay in place but the fabric will start to come apart.
One can not bring an awing in past 40 mph, either were done or it will come in tomorrow.

The Honda EU3000 is still running, until tomorrow.

If you wait until the next storm, it very likely will be filled in again. At least on Assateague, folks weren't allowed to build houses right up to the surf line. Nature gives and nature takes away.
