I found a small stick in my back yard.

Well, I've just  gotten back online thanks to my emergency generator.  
After five small  black outs yesterday afternoon, the power finally went 
down for good all over  my neighborhood at around 5:50PM. 
First order of  business was to get my wife’s Autocad station back up and 
running off the  generator…her back up battery was going fast and didn’t 
seem to want to get  the computer on… 
Lots of huge trees  are down, laying over power lines and in streets.  
Saw one power pole  snapped in half. 
The local Martins  grocery is on back up generator. 
They have some  aisle lights but it is kinda dark...real third world stuff. 
Only dry and  canned  goods...all the freezer chilled units are dark, and 
they had to  ship everything out. 
A real  mess. 
If this is anything  like Isabel...people will be w/o electrical power for 
up to two weeks....   
As usual after a  hurricane, very nice sunny blue sky day…and HOT ……………
with no  AC. 
And the lovely  sound of chain saws floating on a gentle southern breeze 
through my open  windows……..

Bad storm. NW  Jersey.  Lightning, torrential rain.  The worst should hit 
us mid  morning.  My dogs don't like it  much.

Earthquakes, hurricanes, what  next?
 

 
3:45PM  and the  rain is coming down with a blustry roar …. in sheets  …
.sideways!
 
My back backyard is a mess and two small  dazed water logged sparrows have 
taken refuge up under the overhang on my back  porch…pitiful sight.
 

 
Power has gone off three times….but  forunately it is backon.
 
Several blocks up the first big tree has  come down…50/50 chance of hitting 
the house… and this guy was  lucky…
 

 
How are you other east coast guys  faring?
 
Jim
