SmokeEater Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Trees and wires down throughout the county, structural damage to some houses also. Squatters in a abandoned, fire damaged house in Egg Harbor Twp, were in it and the structure collapsed. Rescue now being attempted. Over 100,000 without power in AC Electric's service area alone. Still powered up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokeEater Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Im just saying is it a better idea just to stay up or just sleep and chance it? I would, it can't hurt. Not everyday you get to experience a hurricane so close to our area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSky Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Just lost power again just as I got radars back on line, post via cell, long night ahead. Not even a hiccup here neighbour...knock on wood Raining heavy no idea how much has fallen. Looks like from now through 6am will be worst of storm as tropical storm force winds start in our area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Up to 0.65" as of 11:00PM. So far there have been no significant wind gusts, but being a low lying area with three mountain ranges might be why. Off to bed for a few hours before the storm gets cranking up here.

hazwoper Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Can t believe I still have power. The news about the Schuylkill flooding being worse then any time since 1890 is a bit crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bender Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Based on the Peco map it looks like about 15-20k in the greater Del Val but i am sure that info is WAY old: http://www.peco.com/outagemap Thanks to all for keeping us safe and up-to-date from a normal winter lurker (and thanks to Glenn for his continued great coverage).
