Your forgetting about 100 miles or NJ coast line.

And 8 million without power.

Heavy flooing in PA. Severe damage in Long Island and Nantucket Sounds.

Yeah a pretty small area I'd say.

I believe a large number of the people without power have no power because it was shut off, not because the storm knocked it out. But I’m not sure.

And I am saying it is a small area, relatively speaking. Chicago, LA, Seattle, Phoenix, etc. are not impacted.

I’m not saying it is not a big deal, especially to those in the thick of it. I’m just trying to zero in on the correct perspective from which to take this event in.

Long Island.

Have a brother and sister living half a mile apart in Shirley, Long Island, and they were spared.
Sister text at 11pm Monday night that she, her husband, and 5 year old were tired and going to bed. Then today sister was on stand-by waiting to hear if she should go 30 minutes to work Tuesday.
Have no report on that.
So amid near-by disasters, some were untouched, TG.
