Subject: Hurricane Sandy
No one has asked or checked in; yet the storm was a severe one. So, in case
anyone was concerned: Toronto was mostly troubled by power outages and tree
damage. Only one person was killed in the storm, though a hydro worker has
since died on the job. On a more personal note, although we had two
black-outs, power in my home came back on Tuesday morning.
Are folks in the New York and Atlantic coastal region all okay?

Glad to hear you're fine. We weathered the storm OK in DC. Some folks were
without power for awhile but the area came through with minimal damage
considering the scope of this storm. Things started returning to normal for
most folks in the area today. :) Boomer

Thought I had sent this to the list.
We lost power just after 8PM Monday evening; just got it back around
9PM tonight. Cable Internet was out for about an hour after power was
restored; cable TV and phone were OK. It's for occasions like these
that Frank and I refuse to give up our copper-line Verizon phone...

Subject: Admin: After the storm
I'm glad to see folks checking in. I had planned to ask later today if we
didn't start hearing. I hope everyone who was in Sandy's path is ok, and am
glad to hear good news from those who have checked in so far. The
television coverage has been frightening.

Subject: Hurricane Sandy. UFer Gail okay
Sorry for the cross post.
Some of you may know that our UFer bud Gail lives on Long Island. When I
had messaged with her as Sandy was approaching, she was concerned, that
though she lives in the center of the Island, her house has been prone to
flooding in the past.
I really began worrying when I didn't see her online at all the day before
yesterday. Yesterday morning I got an email from her. She and her family
had somehow made it to her husband's office in Manhattan, and it miraculously
had power. She said her power was out, that 18% of Long Island was without
power. She said her house had not flooded, but that they would need a new
roof and her brand new fence was badly damaged. She said LI was devastated,
with trees and power lines down everywhere. Given that, and the state of
mass transit, I am amazed she was able to make it into Manhattan early
yesterday. She said that she and her family would be showering at the gym
at her husband's office.
I emailed back letting her know how relieved I was that she and hers were
okay, and asking if it was okay to share her news.
Today she emailed back that it was okay to share, and that miraculously her
house had gotten power back, but not yet cable, so no internet for her. She
said all her friends and family were showering at her house for the time
being.
Has anybody heard from UF list ownder, Julia Kocich, who lives in Queens? I
have not seen her on FB since Sandy hit.

Subject: Re: Hurricane Sandy
I am in NW NJ and we have no power. Gas lines are hours long and often cut
off due to the station being out of gas. It's crazy.
Hoping this doesn't go on too much longer.
