Good,bad,andrush Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 In south Texas we don't get shit and in fact rain would be helpful as the grass sometimes just ignites but I hope you all are okay... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColdFireYYZ Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 No trees down in my neighborhood and the power only went off once for a few minutes. There's lots of damage closer to the water, so I'm thankful that I don't live there. A few houses got destroyed in other cities but there doesn't seem to be much damage in my area.

circumstantial tree Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 My folks in NC told me this morning was absolutely beautiful. Clear blue sky and nice sunshine. I hope that happens up here when we wake tomorrow morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine blinks off every once in a while, but it's holding up. Same with my cable/phone/internet.

Queen of Megadon Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 All good here..no damage to speak of, all me and mine are ok. Mom is still without power from yesterday, but it should be up in a day or so. Lots of flooded areas, power outages all over Staten Island, but NYC fared pretty well overall. TICK?? check in.

beanerschnitzel Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I hate for my first post to be negative. But good lord, I'm from Joplin Missouri. I watch the news and hear anchormen blow about "60 mile an hour winds" like thats anything I wanna puke. 13 people dead on the entire eastern seaboard? While I agree 1 is too many but try 190 in 5 miles. Give me a break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missionman Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I did a few construction/repair jobs in Joplin. It was a BAD scene! I hope all is well back east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fledgehog Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 (edited) lost power, and cable shortly thereafter. and our generator just happened to fail on us as well (perfect timing, right?). NYSEG claims we'll be lucky to have power back by next weekend. Not much damage from the storm though, just a ton of trees and wires down. While the storm was happening, it didn't seem that horrible though -- about the same magnitude as a heavy summer storm. Everything's fine up at school.

1-0-0-1-0-0-1 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 (edited) Irene took down TRF for about half a day. A delayed reaction, too -- my neighbor's tree fell during the storm on Sunday morning, and it's been leaning on his power line since then. The line was hanging low across the street, just waiting for a passing truck to take it down. This morning, either a truck or the weight of the tree took that line down, along with mine. All is fixed now. Board's been up for all of half an hour and look at all you people logged on already. Amazing.
