[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 474823, member: 2211"] Well it only too me five hours, but I made it home, in the dark, skirting trees, wires and cut branches across roads. Shortly after I left LI at around 2 pm, easy child texted me to get some groceries and fill my tank because nothing within 17-25 miles was open. I stopped somewhere and finally found a town that wasn't that bad...this was my third try and had to take multiple detours just to get back on the highways, ugh. Then I took the rural route all the way home - lots of detours, it really was intense! My neighborhood is destroyed!! No power, no phones, even cellular service is spotty. difficult child and her boyfriend had to drive 25 miles out to find diesel for the generator. They're on their way here to spend the night. My boss called and said our building hasn't any power either, the servers are all down. Some reports say it could take a week or more! I've never seen it this bad here before, really NOT happy with Mother Nature's dirty work tonight. on the other hand, thank God we at least have a generator, many do not. And also thank goodness it's october and not January! Well, that is it, over and out for now. Jal, I hope you're doing okay! [/QUOTE]
