I wish you could help jerl.i have the generator going.i want to ask the guy right in back of me if i can use his power but feel weird asking .his power is running.my pop is bringing me a small generator. People are telling me to relax and the generator will be fine but im making sure i have a back up plan if my generator fails.i worked to hard in the past few weeks to making my tank nice and its almost there.and my wife just got home from the hospital and trying to make her comfortable with a fan and the tv.im juust real frustated at this point.

Hudson River

Actually live about 15 miles south of Albany overlooking the Hudson. But easier to say I live in Albany as the small town I live in, doesnt even deliver mail at your house. Glad the Hudson River went down last night, however that means you are in NYC are slated to get our water.

Also on day 4. No generators available to use/buy. Have the all my tanks on battery air pumps and am using inverters and car batteries to get some powerheads working. Already lost all of my frozen fish food and now my regular fridge is getting warm as well. Lesson learned. Buy a generator!

almost day 5.if i dont get power tomorrow im looking at tuesday.apparently no one is working the holiday weekend
God forbid they work through the night and through a HOLIDAY weekend. They had the president of LIPA on channel 7 getting an earfull from residents of Merrick who had called the news channel. Wouldn't you know it their power was restored shortly after. Maybe your neighborhood should do the same. Just a suggestion in this time of desperation!! Best of luck

Have been home almost entire time...don't like to run generator, without being close by...let my daughter use my inverter for grandsons tank... so far, looks like we lost nothing!
