    Default All in Sandy's Path, please check in

    To all friends here, please check in to let everyone know you are ok when you can. If you need help, perhaps some of us that live nearby might be able to help. Let's make this a way to reassure others you are ok, share your crazy Sandy stories, and let us know if you need help in some way. I'm sure Spyderlovers are willing to help each other any way we can!

    We lost power between 9:45pm and 4:30am. Very lucky to only have small debris down in the yards. Fences intact. People on the coast from CT to NC had it much worse than us. Though, I also hear that inland in NJ is pretty bad too.

    Still raining off and on today. But very little wind. We'll have a lot of raking to clean up. But, not much else, thankfully.

    Getting better now here in eatern pa just north of philly. We lost power about 8:30 last night and it came back on about 5 pm today. There was a roof from a neighboring buisness that blew off from the very high winds. It damaged my neighbors car and garage.

    I have my parents over since they don't have power yet and I think another couple is coming over for the night too.

    The eye of the storm came right over our house .

    We usually lose power when the neighbor sneezes !

    The last storm we had no electric for 5 days and I am still amazed that we made it through this storm without a flicker . I spent 2 days situating all the crap we have in the yard and putting things safely away so nothing would blow around . I also prepped for at least 2 days living in the basement and 2 days worth of fuel for the generator .

    For me : No damage , no trees down , just a mess of branches , leaves and thousands of dam acorns everywheres ---- no regrets on being over prepared for this one .

    I wish everyone the best with a bad situation and may you get back to normal operation quickly !

    Lots of rain and wind here in Rochester, NY. A few trees uprooted, power out for a bit, but all-in-all we made it OK. Nothing like our brothers and sisters in NYC , NJ and Long Island. Best wishes to all those folks!

    Default Checking in from Sandy

    All was quiet during these two days. Internet slowed down a little yesterday afternoon, so this site was a little wonky.

    Apart from that...

    What a horrible storm. Prayers go out to the families of the 38.

    Warrington (Horsham, Willow Grove) area...20 miles outside Philly.

    Lost power on Monday night. It came back to my apt complex sometime yesterday afternoon.

    Spyder's outdoor cover held tight and no issues...at least none that I know of yet, I haven't lifted the cover to know if anything is water logged.

    We were lucky. No trees down and no power losses. Had generator full of gas and extra fuel if needed. Sandy went around us. Sorry about all the people who lost power and their homes . Here, an 8 year old boy went out to check on their animals and his father was outside also and told him to get back into the house. About that time a tree fell on the 8 year old boy and killed him. His father just stood there and watched the tree fall. The father could do nothing to help his son because it happened so fast.

    No damage at my house, But there's hundreds of trees down, and transformers,poles and wires down.
    No power and probably won't get it back for at least 5/10 days, Running on a generator right now. Roads here are almost impassable.
    Believe me when i see what happen in South Jersey and the NYC area I'm not complaining.

    Lost power for about 3 hours Monday evening.

    Just got settled into bed. Reading Ayn Rand on my iPad, candle burning, .380 on the nightstand. Then the lights came back on!
