Default Storm Sandy

Just been watching this on tele. Hope no one here has been directly impacted by the storms. Thoughts going out to all who have been.

Has GMP posted today?? He may not have power.. I only got 4-5" of rain and high winds gusts up into the 70's,, reports to the 80's but fall has hit up top and the trees do not have any leaves left.. If they had leaves we would have trees down everywhere.. just south of me is apparently mayhem.. I was just outside reattaching my vinyl siding.. moving some large branches and thats it.. Other than that today I'm cleaning the basement. Hope everybody else made it thru as well if not better than me!

I'm OK. Neighborhood is trashed, trees crushed cars, houses. On generator. No phone, cable, net( on my droid). I had to drive over neighbors yard between wires to get out of neighborhood and get gas a few towns south. Probably week without power. Have my gen hooked up to my '07 250 tank for longer run time. Rain was less than expected, which was good. I'll check back later.

Damn it Glenn !! You seam to always loose power this time of year. Hopefully all these extra power and line guys from out west and down south will get you fixed up quick!! My area is much better than expected. Maybe they will send those extra crews they got out your way. Need anything let me know!

Yeah, the new Halloween tradition! Well you know its tight thereon the lake with a lot of trees, and the main road is through the valley with above ground lines. Trees want to fall over on the steep slope. My house is OK but man what damage all around me. I tested and moved some wires myself just to get out easier. Haven't even seen a utility truck yet! A guy was pinned in his F250 when a tree fell on it and crushed it, unreal he's not dead. Hammer Run is very iffy at this point.
