Re: Getting ready for Sandy
We fared better in upstate NY than I thought we would. I knew they were wrong on their original rain prediction of 6 to 12 inches but 1.5 was even less than the 3 to 4 I was expecting. We lost power for a couple of hours. I was impressed that NYSEG got our power back so quickly in such high winds and driving rain.
This was faster than they expected. It drove deeper inland than they expected. It swallowed a lot of cold dry air and weakened quickly. The major problems were the coast, the area north and west of landfall and the area around SW PA where it semi stalled.
Our weather sucks here but the weather in PA seems even worse. I don't know how you guys deal with it. It is like England but harsher.
