She passed by us, but didn't come too close.  We had mainly high winds and some rain - and electricity and water off for a day or two.    How are you others in her path faring?

Yep.  My best friend is in NYC.  She says that it's rainy.  She's not in any of the evacuation zones, though.  I spent a few hours yesterday trying to figure out if she was.  Cuz public transportation is shut down, she missed out on work this weekend.  I don't think she's overly impressed.  We're supposed to just get a bit of rain and wind here (Prince Edward Island), but I think what's left of the storm will be to our west, headed towards Quebec

Picking up lots of yard debris.  Lost a lot of branches and a large one fell on the gutters, but missed the roof. Thank goodness.  East of us got 15 inches of rain and the coast is quite a mess. Irene hung over NC for 11 hours.  She really likes us! 

WillieandWinnie got lots of flooding, but they are safe.   :2thumbsup;

I saw this afternoon on CNN that there was a tornado warning in NC too.  I forget the town, though

Going through life tied to a chair!

I was on the West Coast at Ocean Shores, WA and every trail leading to the ocean had a Tsunami sign so then I was scared to death that there could be an earthquake in the ocean and I would hear a siren and where would I run..... the second floor of the hotel? 

How do people live there and even sleep at night!   So, I drove 9 hours just to be glad to leave!

I'm glad everyone on the East Coast is fine.          :waving;
