Had to work in NY from 4pm-8pm after class today. It was awful, all of my clothes were soaked through a gore-tex trench coat my job gives us. It looked like I pissed myself.

lol, it's not even bad in northern delaware, granted it's dark and I can't see much. But it doesn't look bad from what I can see. Power is still on.

My dad called me and said at my house in jersey all the transformers are blowing up, it's not raining much but the winds are crazy... So the weather channel is showing west virginia and it looks like they have a shit ton of snow, anybody wanna confirm the awesomeness?

Maybe, I just live here occasionally to go to school. I didn't even get to crack open the glowsticks I have for when the power goes out.

The real question is are there any NSers in west virginia and are they skiing?

your pictures help put into perspective what's going on. for me, I've sat in my house all day studying, my girlfriend watching the news. nothing. but to see what's happening from a real person (and not the tv or weather channel) makes it that much more real. you should definitely keep posting pictures as the water surges. good luck, stay safe.

Well then haha.....I have a math teacher who was telling us about her nephew who lives a block away from the east river and is on the third floor of his building. Also she told us about how quiet he said it was when he went out for coffee in the morning.
