This is across the street from me, lots of heavy wind last night lots of dead branches down, ground very saturated

1. The tree was just giving the house a hug to calm it down during the storm.

5. weather has been total shit in some parts of the country

MANY inches of rain and more on the way. Damn high winds, saturated ground, trees down and/or wind, severe cold, snow.

YUCK!

6. Ouch! Up here in Newark our kids couldn't get in the development

When they came home from work due to a tree bringing down power lines and a utility pole. There was a police car stuck inside our development so they probably cleared it faster than they would have. The entrance to the development was blocked about 6 hrs. Our electricity was out 9 hrs. I checked PulsePoint and at one time they had 60 electrical emergencies in an hour for New Castle County. This morning DelDOT posted a list of 47 NCC roads that were still closed.

Both daughter and son ended up spending the night at our son’s fiancé’s house across town.

I hope you faired well in your neck of the woods.

Ever since a tree came down on our house during Sandy, I get really uncomfortable when we have heavy winds or the ground is ultra saturated.

8. I was watching those soft wood sweet gum trees swaying back-and-forth over my deck.

My power only went out for a few minutes I charged up my little extra battery just to charge the phone if necessary. But I went to the grocery store a couple blocks away this morning and it was closed due to a power outage. And I drove by a high school that looked closed. So I guess we were lucky. Right here. Delmarva power sent a notice with the link to the power outage reporting number
