    Been watching pictures/videos on the Weather channel this morning. Lots of power outages and trees down in New England and the Northeast. Massachusetts hit hard.
    Anyone lose power? Any trees down in you area...hoarding opportunities? Post pics if you can.
    Nothing here in Southern Connecticut. Lots of leaves down, heavy rain and wind but thats it. The river in our ravine is running good. The rapids below us are louder after a good rain.

    Wait for the dust to settle, if you’re out hoarding wood in this stuff chances are more may come down in the same spot as you stand and we don’t want to be short a fellow! Stay warm and safe. That wood can wait. :coffee:

    I have to clean up my yard. Tons of branches down. Next two months golf courses cutting down numerous trees. I’m waiting with baited breath

    North shore of Suffolk county is like post Sandy from what I hear. 83 mph wind gust confirmed

    Quite a few thumps on the roof yesterday & last night. My yard looks like the aftermath of an areial minefield with all the branches everywhere. Glad I put the cat in the shop early yesterday... No trees down at least in my yard. Power was out in several areas around me but no opportunity to use my favorite German Lanterns this go round.

    Midwinter... Ouch! I can imagine that made somebody's eyes bug out when it came through the ceiling. My son would've slept right through it too.

    Just frazzled and inconvenienced. They will need a crane. I don't have the heart to ask for the wood, I'm sure they want it gone as quickly as possible.

    Scary biscuits Midwinter. Glad to hear there was only structural damage and no one harmed.
