Mad Mackie and bride are OK!! Just fired up the generator and took a walk thru the woods and surprisingly little came down. But no power, no cable, no cellphone, just telephone and internet and the newspapers just arrived!!!
The folks west of NJ are still getting battered!! We had some 65-70 MPH gusts last PM so my weather station tells me, I just checked its memory and reset it.
Take care all

Luckily we have power and internet, but no telephone. :frown: But that is fine...I'm glad we have electricity. On my weather station the max wind gust I recorded was 38 mph, which is pretty strong for a residential neighborhood. Today is going to be chilly (around 42 degrees) and rain/snow throughout the day....CRAPPY WEATHER! :thumbdown:
There was no damage to our house, just leaves and sticks down in the front yard, but a lot of the houses in the area have flooded basements. I'm so glad we live on a hill!

Pouring out still.

Raining again here, also. It stopped earlier this morning and I had a chance to rake the front yard and clear the leaves out of the gutter of the street. We still are getting some strong wind gusts, but not as frequent as yesterday.

I wasn't on LMF yesterday :frown: because of what the hurricane did. It was not nearly as bad as having your house flood, but we lost our home phone and internet during the storm. :frown: Actually, we lost our phone, and then we lost our internet AFTER the storm. :confused3: Ugg! Well, we have it back now! :tongue:

You must have gone out of your mind not being able to be on here all day.
