Just periods of strong wind. We still have power, and hopefully it stays on. It really doesn't seem that bad here for right now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nycjersey-mamas#post-366923 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 20:57:06 +0000 plantains 366923@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@photojane: I was freaking out but I think the worst of it is past. We still have power which is kind of a small miracle. The lights are flickering but they haven't gone out yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nycjersey-mamas#post-366906 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 20:48:58 +0000 photojane 366906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@plantains: holy cow! I would be FREAKING OUT. stay safe! </p> <p>Do all of y'all still have power?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nycjersey-mamas#post-366897 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 20:44:30 +0000 plantains 366897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I live in Long Island City and the flooding here is really bad. The park bymy house is completely underwater. The street is very heavily flooded and waters pouring into the building lobby. Luckily I'm on the 35th floor so flooding isn't a problem. The wind is crazy though, i can feel the whole building swaying and my bed is shaking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nycjersey-mamas#post-366886 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 20:33:18 +0000 mrsjazz 366886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>just really windy. we're in a no flood zone in central brooklyn so we'll be okay. my mom's house in queens is flooded &amp; out of power. my job is probably partially flooded in tribeca. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nycjersey-mamas#post-366883 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 20:31:30 +0000 meredithNYC 366883@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're in Brooklyn and pretty far inland, at that, so I don't think there is any. Any damage that happens to our building will probably be from the wind. I imagine we will see a lot of trees down tomorrow, too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nycjersey-mamas#post-366881 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 20:27:46 +0000 photojane 366881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@meredithNYC: any flooding near you? I saw a clip on tv of a broadcaster in knee deep water! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nycjersey-mamas#post-366875 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 20:18:10 +0000 meredithNYC 366875@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Really, really windy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nycjersey-mamas#post-366874 Mon, 29 Oct 2012 20:17:13 +0000 photojane 366874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What's it like outside? Here in southeastern Virginia we felt Sandy strongest this morning, and had tons of flooding. What's it like up there for y'all now? I hope everyone is staying safe! </p>
