Hurricane Irene

Wow I'm surprised how lucky you all are.

Those without power might not be able to report it yet, of course, so our results are skewed.

That would be one of many bad things. A tornado has never affected me though (yet, and I hope never).

Just wait for that earthquake to hit with the limestone bedrock.

My power went out around 12:30AM last night, got back around..3-4PM today. Posting on here so late because our cable was also out, which meant our internet.

Cable was out for a few hours today. That's kind of annoying because I get my internet from my cable, so I had to use my smartphone for internet.

I spent a few hours vacuuming my Jeep out due to the immense amount of water in it. All of my floor mats filled with water and drenched my carpet, so I removed the carpet completely.

Trust me, it rings true. I can fix anything.

Power went out for three minutes. I stepped in a puddle.

i was in a hotel at the time, and i lost power for about 2 hours. Then, when i went home to NYC where it hit hard, there was literally no damage. LOL

good thing about where i live: only natural disasters that happen are blizzards and sometimes flooding and thunder storms

Same here. Although blizzards up where I live are usually a bit more intense.

I'm in Sandston, VA, right near Richmond International Airport. We lost power about 2:45pm EST on Saturday and the power company is saying that it could be as late as Thursday before we're restored. Other than the power loss we faired ok, lost a few small trees in the back but nothing major. Luckily my work has power so I can at least check my internet stuff on my breaks and have a place to charge my phone and and iPod. I really hope that Thursday was just a worst case scenario estimate and that power gets restored soon.
