Will be going under water tonight for sure just took my truck to higher ground my last vehicle out! Had to walk a mile in crotch high water as the cab could not get me back to the house. Very tiring with your arms full of crap. Took off my boots to save them so I walked in my socks.

Yeah, hunkering down here in South Plainfield. Thankfully we're not too close to water but with power going out anything goes. I have my work truck with me at home to run the sump pump off the truck's power inverter if needed.

Had plans for my girlfriend's bday this weekend in Atlantic City....well....time to cancel those I guess......

For anyone who knows Atlantic City, these are the Shopping Outlets.... Parts of Atlantic City boardwalk have broken apart and are literally floating down the strip....

It's pretty crazy here on Long Island. A huge tree in my backyard snapped like a twig. Wind gusts of over 70 mph.

‎5 large trees down so far, we can't get out of the driveway, power has been out, multiple transformer explosions were on the horizon. so far none of the trees hit the house and we are safe, we wish the wind would just stop. We won't know all the damage until daylight.

According to there automated telephone message they moved all Corvettes to a safe area so that none would be lost to flooding a yoemans task considering there inventory, hoping for the best to all AC residents & businesses.
