Here in the Richmond Virginia area, we dodged the bullet, about 2" of rain and the winds never got over 35 MPH, hope Verne and the rest of the Jersey guys are OK this morning.

We made it through just fine. The lights flickered several times last night and there were about 5 blue flashes nearby from transformers blowing up but we never lost power or had any flooding. Just a few limbs around the property.
I hope everyone else avoided damage.

Be careful in your clean-up efforts guys. Chain saws, falling limbs, trip hazzards, power lines, ....... dangerous stuff!

We had 4 trees fall. One just missed my 1974 Corvette. Rest of the area is good and my new house which is going up is still standing. So we made out ok.

We had a tree start to go down. Propped itself up against a pine tree. Glad it wasn't headed for the 55 Bel-Air! Don't want to chop the top or channel it!
