Yes in directly. The amount of morons asking stupid question on here is remarkable. Just goes to show how little American's care about the rest of the world.

I'm in Montgomery County, PA.

We lost power for about 18 hours and have a bunch of leaves and a couple of branches down in the yard.

But I just drove home from work, and there are obviously still a lot of people without power in the area, and multiple traffic lights are out.

But, basically, as long as a tree didn't fall on your house or car, the damage is minimal.

I am sitting here eating cake and ice cream. I live in Southern NJ where the Eye pased over and we have no damage at all. I have seen some tree branches down. we had about 4 inches of rain. my wife is mad because all the TV has is Weather news.

Ye I know it is very bad in many areas, but thank the good Lord, mine is not one of those.

@@Yarra: yes pretty bad when place ike Atlantic City, NJ look ike Hiroshima Japan after the A bomb it. Take time to look on the internet at the pictures. For those foks down south we did nt make fun of your plight, but rather, sent aid in terms of supplies and human labor to aid in your relief, one of my Daughters spent two weeks in MIss doing vounateer work for the clean up as did thousand of others of our young people. Yes Sandy was a Cat 1 but, it was over a thousand miles wide and moving very slow, hitting the very most densely populated area of the USA. When it came in my area it still had 75 MPH sustained winds and gusts to 92 MPH. You are welcome for the aid we sent now please sit back and count your blessing tonight just as I am. Please stop playing big shot mocking others!

I'm in Houston. Sandy was just a normal catagory 1 storm for me. Down here in the south we get them as cat. 3 and 4's.
