    Sounds like some crazy stuff up there. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your families. Hope you all can find a way to stay safe.

    Stay safe guys, hopefully it won't be as bad as they're reporting it may be.

    Sofar windy and mild rain with a hint of leather and chocolate...wait.

    Just a couple trickles across the basement floor. The rain doesn't seem anywheres near as intense as TS Lee was last year (Irene really didn't do squat here but it's the big comparison.) Its just coming down sideways... Up the road 15" of rain was measured from Lee.

    I am not hoping for a repeat.

    Very lucky here the power even stay on despite winds that snapped a metal road sign in half in front of my house. A few miles from us someone lost the roof off their home. The rain wasn't that bad and I am not near the shore so that part did not effect me. I hope you all are safe. I bet CC lost is electric too many tree's up his way. Lets us know how you did logan.

    Sitting here in the airport waiting to get home as we speak, my mom tells me my neighborhood looks like a war zone, hopefully my flight lands at Kennedy without a hassle.

    Good luck to anyone else out there dealing with this.

    Unfortunately my flight back to Key West was canceled.

    Were doing ok. Lost power for only 27 hours. Some tree limbs broke off. I live in the center of Long Island, so no flooding here. I was very fortunate through this storm.
    The coast here had huge swells of water coming in. I think the tide rose about 11-15 feet around the island. I heard reports of boats settling on peoples front yards. Trees are down everywhere and about 90% of homes were without power. Not sure how many are back on as of now. I think I read about 83% are still out. Thats about 800,000 homes in NYC and Long Island.

    Hopefully none of you are experiencing worse conditions. Be safe everyone.
