108,000 reported power outages on LI. I have some great pics to share in the coming days. There are some amazing pictures people have taken at local beaches or homes near the water front. It’s not even high tide yet and the storm is not really kicking yet but there are several feet of water in areas that it should be. It should be significant around midnight tonight.
My power just went out for a minute… And the heavy stuff hasn’t started yet…
We’re just expecting high winds and a lot of rain - but I look up at the power lines coming into my house and think, “why are these not underground?”
I have underground power… if it fails its a nightmare to fix, so its a give and take.
How do you know this!!?? I want it NOW but if I locally get it installed they want $2000!! :
Imagine having to untangle that ball o yarn power lines!
