I live in Atlantic county in NJ, and in my opinion it was a lot of hype. Never lost power, phone, TV, anything. The shore did get hit pretty hard, and there was flooding, but inland everything is cool. My buddy that lives in Brigantine (Right next to AC) rode it out and he said it really was not that bad.

Glad to hear you are safe. My family in CT said something similar but they did lose power. Winds really weren't that high. Here in North Dakota we had winds like that last week and we barely flinched. Though I suppose there are more trees out east. Heard the storm surge was nuts though.

Yeah today they surveyed that damage and LBI is destroyed. Tons of sand was washed ashore, in some homes feet of it was deposited. Couldn't find a picture online but the news had some footage.

I live in Upstate NY, and all I got was a light drizzle for about 3 hours. They claimed we were going to be getting 90+ MPH winds. Yeah, I'd say they were pretty damn far off...

I suppose it is better to be prepared just in case though. I do love how much they hype that shit though. Seems like every weather event they would hype up when I lived in CT.
