I wonder if any webcams were operational when Sandy hit?
I'm sure there were some ... (more would have been operational in the summer) somehow I don't think most survived ... might be worth a search ...???

More devastating photos of peeps homes in today's papers.
-
Seeing more & more tree guys today - but why the heck aren't the dealing with the trees that have pulled wires down? These are really dangerous.
-
prayers for those who lost homes, property, dreams

I have not forgotten about those people who have lost everything in the Sandy storm. I feel so badly that it has happened at all, much less around the holidays. Makes me really think about everyone less fortunate than I am, or others are. With all the things going on in the world that compete with "news" everyday, it is important not to forget them.

I have been spending alot of time down in LBI lately.......it is just so hard to take it in. The devastation is just unexplainable. A place that always brings happy memories is just gone.....so many people from all over the world there to help though. God bless them all!! We will have to tear down the house and start fresh....like thousands and thousands of others....but it will be done!

We got Hurricane Irene damage in my area last year akin to what Sandy did to you all this year. You're all in my thoughts, believe me!

Two weeks ago I was granted a sabbatical by my school district, which means I can spend next year writing my book.

Not in the slightest. I start writing in spring/summer--I'm still collecting interviews, so have at it. Glad to hear you all are safe, by the way!

Thank you, everyone being safe is what counts. I will definitely get to it! That is so exciting you are going through with the book....best of luck!

Sandy was a very different hurricane from the beginning. There were many many people dead because of it even before it hit the states. Here's a 3 minute satellite radar loop from beginning to end. The various formations and reformations of the eye are incredibly unusual in it's self.

I wonder if any webcams were operational when Sandy hit?
For New Jersey - this Union Beach video might be the closest available ... it was broadcast on a NJ News channel:

Yes, I agree. I understand that 2 teenagers made the recording I'm not sure what happened to the building/home this was video'd ... Union Beach was hit very, very hard ... I'm sure they will have a story to tell!

Lakeland Electric lineman attacked while in New York speaking out
That's really, really sad ... I hope the attacker gets caught somehow (security camera ...)!

Anyone who is experiencing mold exposure! It is very dangerous. The house I am living in has all kinds of mold due to the water damage, and I have to live here. If any of you experience a rash on your face or body that itches like it is on fire or just any type of rash it is MOLD! I am going today to try to get a shot of predisone to help with the itching...but it is not for long term use. Just thought I give some helpful hints on mold exposure...google it. p.s.> I even had to cut off my hair due to the exposure, my long, beautiful hair began falling out in clumps. Respiratory problems, you name it...it is aweful and can even cause death. Take it seriously! p.p.s.> it also can affect your pets...
