Township had residents in a low lying area evacuate and suggested that anyone who has had flooding in the past to evacuate also. We did lose power on and off around midnight on Sat. but Irene just left some small branches and lots of leaves on the ground in our area. We lost our cable TV, internet and phone for all of Sunday until about 3 am Monday morning. Boy did I miss my contact with the outside world. Just hope everyone else had as few problems as we did.

May in Jersey, in what part of the state do you live? Our area was okay except for Hoboken, 10 minutes from me, which was all over the news due to flooding. Glad to know you're okay.

Glad you made it safely through Irene. I worried about all my friends in her path!

we made out ok on sunday a little rain under the roof vents and a trashed screen house. or so I thought On monday morning found my convertabile with 2 inches of water inside the drivers floor. and on Tues the whole town of Mays Landing flooded. Getting to work and back home has taken almost 4 hrs today

Glad to hear that everything is ok with you and your family. I'm wondering how Krystana made out during the storm. She mentioned that she was not sure if anything would be left when she got back. Has anyone heard anything?

glad you made it okay. Irene flooding is all over the news in michigan. they're saying Vt. is bad. saw a lady on fox news this morning that said she came in from up state N.Y. and had to take 4 detours to get to N.Y. city. I WAS planning on going to bennington Vt. the 2nd week in sept. May not now.
HOW ARE THE REST OF YOU NEW ENGLANDERS DOING? |
My DGD's husband works for Asplundh Tree Trimming. That company has over 1000 trucks out there. They will be very busy!!!!We are in Wisconsin.
Glad you escaped the main storm!!! |
Glad you all are okay...we just got heavy rain on the coast here in SC, nada for us mid-Carolinians! But all in all, a very nasty storm...

Glad to hear. My NJ relatives had varying degrees of damage/inconvenience, but they are all well.
