I know, it's insane that they had to just stand there and watch it burn helpless to stop it. How much suffering can these people take and they already have such incredibly stressful jobs. They don't get paid or acknowledged nearly enough.

What really sux is the homes that all burnt down were mostly firemen and first responders who aided in 9-11,,,That neighborhood lost 32 men in 9-11 and now this fire destroys the homes of those guys who gave so much. sad.gif

This storm was so random for some people who never imagined it would impact their area so greatly.  Of course fallen trees (resulting in deaths) and fires leading to even greater and total loss was definitely not expected.  It's so sad, I just wish people didn't have to suffer especially those who were hit by Irene not that long ago and were still recovering from that damage.  Life goes on though and east coasters are super resilient. I love me some east coast like nobody's business and can't wait to be back during the holidays.  Hope everyone from the site who was impacted and can't get online right now are safe, warm and dry, and we see them posting/playing again real soon.

26.5 hours of no power.  I was lost.  It's back now but who knows how long...

I'm so sorry to hear of the deaths associated with this storm.  It's awful.  Lots of trees down, many transformers, etc.  I hope this message arrives to find everyone ok.

How is everyone doing?  I hope you're all staying safe and following directions to keep you protected.  It's frustrating now that power is out and you're no longer able to stay in contact with your friends and family.  I've lived in soCal for 15 years but I'll be an east coaster forever.  My thoughts are with you.

Heard a big BOOM.  Went outside to walk the dog (who must be walked regardless of weather) and saw three trees down on my property.  A beautiful pine is gone :(   So far only 1.5 inches of rain but the next 6-8 hours are going to be the worst. 

I think I saw a raccoon flying past my window.  I could be wrong... maybe a squirrel in a halloween mask.

I lost power for 20 minutes.  I was sad.

The pressure in the atmosphere is so wild that the doors on the INSIDE of my house are opening and closing.

Crazy stuff.

Stay safe!  xoxox
