This is what I'm doing during Hurricane Sandy. How about you ?

Well, I got crushed. My town is still without power with no ETA on when it is coming back on. The closest cell tower got knocked out so no cell service either. No electricity means no heat too. My office has been closed all week and I can't get to NYC anyway. This blows.

Sorry to hear that; same boat. My location (Long Beach, NY) was fairly ravaged. We were lucky, all we lost was our cars (went almost completely underwater) since we're on the second floor but we have friends who lost everything - all from just the water surge. And yeah, no way to get into NYC - though my job is without power anyhow (no matter, was my last week.)
We're all staying at my mother's in Queens but we are fairly certain we're going to be here indefinitely. With all the problems and the flooding, it's fairly certain that apartment is done.
I feel fortunate for all we still have, but I know for a lot of my friends, it's going to be a long struggle. Hopefully things will be back to normal before too long. Hang in there.

Ugh. That blows. We are also lucky in that my parents have power and we have been staying with them. They are still saying 7-10 days for power and it is getting frustrating.... Schools still have no power and neither does my office. They got the mall across the street up and running though.
:angry:

Last year in October we got a 12" snowstorm that killed our power for a week. That's all it took. 12" of wet snow before the leaves had fallen and trees were on the ground everywhere.
