I hope that any and all Brendanites in the path of the hurricane are safe and sound.

I'm in upper west Manhattan which was pretty much completely unscathed by the storm, other than a few downed trees. We never even lost power. However the subways are still down and will likely remain so for the rest of the week. My parents live on Long Island and they lost power yesterday. My boss has a home out on Fire Island (a barrier island to the south of Long Island), no one has been allowed back there yet to assess the damage, though it's pretty much certain he'll have significant flood damage.
Still, we were all really lucky compared to those in New Jersey, lower Manhattan, Queens & the southern shore of Long Island, some of which was just completely decimated!
We have two additional people staying in our apartment tonight who lived in some of the affected areas.
