Type your city and state, or zip code, in the upper left to see recent weather advisories and current and forecasted weather conditions. For power outages, I know of conEd Power Outages, but it applies only for NYC and parts of the eastern Hudson Valley. | ||

I guess some parts got hit harder (was reading facebook comments, and one of my co-workers said he saw his transformer burst into flames). Checked the weather when I woke up, and looks like Irene is about to hit NYC. | ||

Waking up today, so far so good. A decent sized branch fell in the backyard, but considering that the maple tree we have there is one of the largest in the neighborhood, she's still hanging tough. Otherwise, no flooding, not even major pooling of water, given the constant rain overnight. And power uninterrupted is amazing. | ||

Most of the people here left before 2-3pm. best part of it all was going paint balling in a part of hoboken and having cops tell us to go home haha. But uh yeah, wind/rain is getting worse, and like the guy a few posts above said...the worst won't be coming for a few more hours. EDIT: A great part of Hoboken is below sea level, so it'll flood real quick :/ My brother evacuated Hoboken. They expected it to be under 5 feet of water. | ||
