Power has been going up and down at several of my client sites as I get notifications when that happens. I have shut down preselected equipment at many sites already.

It's gone now.
Not sure if the wind blew it onto my yard or a squirrel took it.

You were supposed to stock up yesterday. The little shop in Adamsville is only 5 minutes away and has a nice selection.

It looks like the wind should be picking up in RI over the next few hours.

Woke up about 8 AM. just heavy rain on roof. Still have power here. Expect strong band starting in about 2 hours according to radar. Probably biggest gusts. Looks like the worst of it but its a strong wide band so we will see. . Right now its a non event. Could change as the afternoon goes on and the long exposure to moderate wind starts to take its toll on weak trees , etc.
New York looks to be doing well. Not the flooding that was anticipated.
I'm hoping the trees hold up

well ya never know if you'll have to

we will have no power...in case a window not covered
gets compromised
that's almost a certainty
