If I am not mistaken, it is the NY reservoirs that are not lowered BEFORE the rains, that spill all that extra water down the Delaware?? I remember some folks in Minisink Hills along the Delaware that brought that point to light after those floods you mentioned. It would be irresponsible if that is the case once again, and people have to deal with un-necessary flooding.

Cantore of the weather channel was so disappointed by Irene. Now he is surrounded by water. And there is a fire in his area. How disappointed is he now that he is in danger.

Power out in Edison as of 8:30 pm.

The weather channel was showing people surfing on Lake Michigan. IS this a freak thing or does this happen from time to time?

I can't wait for the wind to stop. Everything is shaking. Trees down. Flooding at the offices of The New York Daily News.

Tide gauges started to drop around dinner time but then they shot right up again. Near 14' in Sandy Hook and the Battery. I feel lucky sitting here with a generator running. But my goodness the wind is howling again outside after near 4 hours of calm. Seems this thing came ashore and stopped.

Took a ride around town, I'm without power but neighboring towns have power. Chinese food was open, only thing open. Figures. Cleared 3 trees from roads with my 9 year old. We beat the weather back home, wind is howling again 30+ or more. Thankfully the generator drowns some of it out because it is no fun hearing it in the dark.

Listening to scanner of structure fires in Brigantine. FD tried to get there but water up to windshield and now they are trying to rescue the firefighters with a deuce and a half. This is a nightmare of epic proportions. My thoughts with everyone.

And to think if this thing hadn't got to the coast as early as it did this would all be even worse.

Up here in Morris County the wind is howlin. Luckily we still have power but the other half of the neighborhood is dark. I guess that makes up for the storm last Halloween when we were without power for 4 days. Knock on wood.

Good luck to everyone!
