Up here in wilkes barre the power went out once at about 2 PM and we're just getting a light/moderate rain with a little wind, but nothing more than an average storm right now it seems :headscratch:

Got the full story on it.......apparantly the owner wasnt even on the craft, and didnt even know the boat was out, The boat....named Net Gains, a 33ft Grady Whine out of Belmar marina, was being moved out of the marina where he keeps it. It was being moved by a marina employee, to a location where they could haul it out.

Guess how fast i would have told my boss to go to hell if he asked me to do that  :lol

I've been watching the gauge at the Bettery in NYC. The water is up to 13.2ft and still rising. I've seen a few reports on twitter that the subways are filling up with water now.

Here's the link if anyone wants to keep an eye on water levels.
