still have power.

Just an FYI for everyone but it seems help is on the way regarding power outages. Passed at least 15 or more bright orange trucks today on I-40 with buckets and drills for setting electric poles while we drove through Arkansas. I’m just guessing they are on their way to the East coast....hope there are more to help out. Prayers to all.

Good to hear things are going better than expected in DE! Praying no FReeper's lose power - for three weeks!! - like we did down here in TX, during Ike.

Stay safe. Prayer's up!

You are absolutely correct! Those of us that live along the Gulf Coast get what you are saying. Prayers for those in the path of the storm.

Ruhroh .. central PA wind just jumped up to 40mph and holding steady for now .. rain’s still light-ish, but I don’t much like it when the trees are dancing.

Battery in Lower Manhattan at record flood tide level of 11.88. Queens and Jersey City flooding, as well as Asbury Park.

Current alignment of storm center is pumping surge around back side of circulation right into NYC area.

I bet salt water can play serious hell with all the relays etc down in those tunnels, not to mention the hundreds of miles of wiring for everyone else !
