Well the storm is over for me here no more rain . doesnt even look like it rained
I got very lucky. No flooding, no downed trees and the power was only out for about 5 hours. Other areas of LI are going to be without power for days. Just loaned out my inverter and portable air pumps to a guy in my club. He's been without power since early this morning.
Made it back home a couple of hours ago. Made it home in time to run an extension from another working outlet to atleast run the return pumps. The circuit breaker to my reef had popped. Basement had 3' of water in it,(our sump pump couldn't keep up with the rain)and apparently the outlets in the basement are connect to the same circuit breaker, and when those outlets went under water the breaker was tripped. Now I am in the process of using a rio water pump hooked up to my python to pump the water out of my basement. Then wait for those outlets to dry out, and see if the circuit breaker will stay on. I'm saying good bye to all our belongins in the basement. But at least from what I can see I didn't loose all my fish & corals, which I probably would've if I listened to Bloomberg, and stayed away. To add insult to injury the roof leaked around the chimney, in to my son's bedroom.
Still I thank God that we are all alife, as well as for the minor inconvenience compared to what it could've been.
Thank you Paul & Kathy for your concerns, and well wishes.

Awilda, I am glad you guys are safe. I just went to lend my generator to a friend a few miles away. It looks like they will be out for days because there is no power for miles around.
I just went to my boat which is about 5 miles away and there are only a handful of homes here with power.
They pulled my boat out of the water just before the storm. It will go back in on tuesday.

We are very lucky this time!
1) major rain skipped us and was swung to further inland including PA and north to CT.
2)Land speed move so much faster them earlier leaving only a short period for heavy rain.
3)It has been downgraded so much when it hit NJ.
If not for so much noise, our trains will be in the water instead of on the ground while Paul's boat will be in the water bumping other boats.
Chatting online, I found many friends actually went out to clear the drains during the storm because all of us are so concerned with the flood warning. In the past, this amount of rain would have flashed many streets. However, with the hazard of down trees, not sure this is a good thing though.
Overall, I think we did good preparing and minimize loses.

I spoke with Kathy earlier in the day and she got very lucky and didn't lose power and her house and boat weren't too badly damaged. Very close by was in much worse shape.
