A Hurricane? Are You Serious?

So, I guess HURRICANE IRENE is headed right in our direction this weekend! 

I am positively FREAKING OUT!  (to put it mildly)

I grew up in Southern California, where earthquakes were common, but this kind of natural phenominon is not!  I don't know what to expect, how to prepare, etc. 

Anyone want to clue me in? 
What the heck am I suppose to do to get our family ready, house ready, my mental self ready for this type of storm? 
ANYBODY?

Should I be getting our basement ready for us to sit in? 
Do I need to go buy cans & stuff? 
Not sure if I need to get water, since we are on a well? 
Do we need to board up our windows and stuff? 
EEK!

I'm not joking when I say this makes me extremely nervous!

If nothing else, just say a prayer that this HURRICANE IRENE decides to steer clear of Trumbull, CT.  Thank you!
