Just lost a tree and some tree limbs.
Not on the house thankfully, and power flickering in and out.

I pray the power stays on, but don't have high hopes for that.

I'm in Southern Norfolk County near Worcester County line, MA

1. Good luck to you and everyone else up there.
Hope you all are safe and well. And even though I hate the Sawx :P, I hope everything goes well for you during the hurricane. And afterwards for that matter.

2. I'm sorry for the loss of your tree (I know they seem like old friends, at least
they do to me) but I'm grateful that nothing worse happened and I'm hoping so much that all my neighbors to the north there will come through this okay.

I feel very grateful that we only lost a shingle from the roof and no other damage, and that we have power.

4. I'm good too in NJ. Sorry you lost a tree.
We didn't lose power for which I am grateful. I heard that people in NJ who lost power, may take 6-7 days to restore. That's a real pain in the neck.

We didn't have much wind, but a lot of rain. My informal gauge I'd say 11-12 inches.

Hope everyone else escapes unscathed.

It was (so far) milder here in my part of PA than predicted (wind is still blowing but the worst appears to be over). Hopefully will be the same for you.
