Worst of hurricane is over, 9" of rain so far, 90mph winds got pretty scary for a few hours, my power is back on but I'm one of the lucky ones. A foot of snow in Western Maryland with 6" more coming, very unusual from a tropical storm. Lots of flooded roads. Some of the beach towns have some bad damage, beaches, piers and boardwalks washed away. Airports will take a few days to open back up I'm sure, as will most businesses. Feeling very lucky though, and appreciate everybodys good wishes.
My sister was supposed to be flying out tomorrow to see her son, Charlton supporter Liam Lane, so our fingers are crossed that it passes quickly with minimum damage
Don't think there'll be any flights to the East Coast, most of the airports are closed.
Best wishes to all our US posters this is described as a "Perfect Storm" a tropical hurricane meeting an Arctic Storm hence the snow and low temperatures. Apparently the New York subway is completely flooded but I bet it's back in action in no time when they put their mind to it the Americans can get things donw, which made the New Orleans event even more amazing
