Just checking in from the suburbs north of NYC. Big mess and lots of mechanical issues, but I'm uninjured.

Got home outside of Concord NH about 4:00 last night. Parked in the garage, closed the door, walked in the house to no power. Had to go back out and make sure the door closed. Still no power this morning. Gave the wife a quick lesson on the generator.
Small branches down, nothing else.
Everybody else?

I'm worried about Frank. Long Island is not in good shape. I think they have a few hundred thousand accounts out of power...maybe more! Both the south ( Atlantic ocean side ) and north ( long Island sound side ) shores are in a very bad way. The interior of the island got smashed by the wind.

Lower Manhattan was part of the Hudson River and the harbor last night. The subway system is very badly flooded. Man this part of the country is a mess. New Jersey has like 2 million accounts down, and there is extensive flooding on the coastal areas. I hope all the Jersey guys & their families are okay.

This is going to be a tough uphill battle.

Thanks guys for the concerns! Sorry i forgot that important bit. Man the wind was just savage last night. I was up on the roof this morning fixing spots where the wind tore up the membrane....it's a flat roof!

I am lucky....my building has & never lost power. It comes in under ground!

All good here in Blue Bell, PA. Thanks for checking, Tom. Friends in Long Island and NJ have not been as fortunate. I feel blessed to have sustained nothing more than a bit of wind damage, etc.

Just a large tree down on my power line pulling it out of my meter box.
I am not happy!
