Guess I'll remove my post since the original poster did a 360 on the topic.

Good Luck Dan!

yup, rain just started pouring down about 10-15 mins ago here in southeast Connecticut along the coast. Winds have been slowly & steadily picking up since last night.

Just heard Johnny (mrvstr) is flooded and with no power. I can't even imagine going through something like this. Be safe friend.

Reg, did you live in Vegas, I was there from 1996 - 2001.? Hope that power comes back soon. We lost power here in Michigan last summer for 5 days. Not good when you a have a septic sytem.

Still have power in central jersey, also have one tree on the roof and another cracked and ready to fall. Luckily, from a quick look doesn't appear to have much, if any, damage and everyone is safe.

Just got a text from Johnny:
"No Power. Trees Down. Power lines down. My house is almost flooded. I'm ok."

Lots of trees uprooted and wires down here in eastern PA. Power was out for about 12 hours - making for some nervous waiting with our 3 sump pumps knocked out. Thankfully the worst of the rain skirted around us and the basement did not flood (where most of my bulk cards were).

Lost a few shingles off the roof and was up there this morning doing a patch job until the roofer arrives.

Hope everyone is safe and your cards are dry!
Rob

Thanks for the update Erick, I'm glad he's ok. I know if he's ok his cards are going to be ok too

For everyone who took major damage, that sucks, but I'm glad you all are alive !!! I can't imagine going through a storm like this, and having to deal with a totally flooded home. I wish the best for all of you.

Sincerely, Clayton

Jamie- so sorry to hear what you have had to endure. Just a couple of weeks ago we were all reveling in your good fortune, and 15 minutes of fame. Now life has taken a cruel turn. I'm very sorry for it.

I grew up in Cedarhurst, also on the south shore of Long Island. I wonder how much damage occurred over there?

Just got a text from him stating that... Thinking of him and everyone in harms way. We have high winds and rain outside DC, but all is well.
