  This is one mean storm, and its huge. i live in the chicago area, and there are coastal flood warnings here with 25-30 ft waves predicted off lake michigan. 1000 miles away from the heart of the storm.

  Reports say more than 8 million customers are without power on the East Coast today (Tuesday).  Its no wonder we haven't heard from our east coast friends this morning.

  And I'm really quite surprised the WGT site is up knowing the WGT servers are located in Jersey City, New Jersey just a few miles west of Manhattan.

  Safe and Sound here. The water got to 23 feet from the house and then dropped back down. Its up again today but at about 30 feet from house. No power in 97% of the town, overall were all ok. Likely wont have power for about a week. But we have generators. 

  Huge Congrats to the weather people who called this thing 6 days ago. They damn near hit the exact spot where the storm found land. We had plenty of time to prepare.

  Now we will have plenty of time to rebuild. :)

  Glad to see bubbadork went into hibernation.

  The man who is in charge of the front desk at our church rec center grew up in Queens. He said 23 houses were washed out to sea. And 80 to 100 more were destroyed by fire caused by downed power lines. A really bad situation.
