Finally got power back tonight around 1600. Unreal storm! So much cleaning to do...chainsaw will be running for weeks! Trees hit the house, shed, deck, utility trailer....just never stopped. Now, they're calling for snow the rest of the week! What a mess....looks like a tornado went through Northern Worcester Cty!

Were up in running too. I have a bunch of pics. Have spent the last 3 days cutting and clearing. My fingers are raw and can barely lift my arms.

They just turned me around in the parking lot and sent me home. No power. I could hear trees snapping as I talked to the boss....

tons of ice up at my office (salem, nh) and no power. i'm actually working on my laptop at the mall because there's power and wifi. hopefully there will be power either at the office or at home by the time my battery dies. doubt it though, since that's only about 20 minutes away. maybe bang out some xmas shopping since i have the mall pretty much too myself - except for the old people walking.

Looked like a pretty big storm surge with high tide this morning as well...about as big as I've seen it.
