Southwest VA got some rain and a little bit of wind. Had some friends come up and stay that live on Hatteras Island. They had talked to someone today who was already back down there and they said there were several new ravines across the island, a few houses down and several businesses blown away including a hotel.

 

We got hit hard here.

I lost lots of tress. Neighnors lost part of their house and a Durango.

I just got power back. It was out for the last 16 hours. Me and teh family are ok and most importantly my car is still parked safetly at my folks garage.



My ******* property is a mess though. I was cutting trees with my chainsaw all day long. My ears are still ringing. Im just happy have power back. My fridge totally died so I don;t have any food. And I couyldnt shower so Im starting to smell like a million.

 

glad to hear you're safe, I was getting worried by your absence in this thread

 

Glad your OK down there Dave. That pic of your house with the trees around it looked like it could be trouble.



We got some strong wind, but our house id OK. Neighbor lost half of his siding. I looked out in my front yard this morning and freaked out - I thought it was was mine. Power flickered on and off several times but we never lost it. All in all it was not too bad, but the house did make some erie whistling and creaking sounds in the wind.

 

It hit pretty hard here...most arent expected to have power til next week. Va was said to be hit the hardest of all inland states...



But, most importantly, my car lived...

 

We got slammed new kent VA...we lost 42 huge trees in our yard alone won't have power or about another week of so ...the house was not hit though...but an estimated 20K to clean up all the trees.

 

i was in boston... it was a joke up there. bearly any wind, and just like an inch or so of rain

 

to everyone who had damage, i'm sorry, i hope nothing important was lost.
