Irene has passed us. 450,000 without power. Yet New Yorker’s are NOT impressed. It hit here around 4am to 630am. 60mph winds. Lots of trees down. It made landfall to our west. We were lucky with no water damage. A lot of lightning all night. We have several large trees down and one laying across our power lines.New Jersey (next door) seems to have gotten the worst of it with a ton of flooding.
Here are some NYC pics:
