Default Re: Hurricane Isabel

Our power just came on... It went out around 5PM on Thursday... There was a wire in a tree going SPARK SPARK BURN BURN SMOKE SMOKE then eventually it went BOOM! And there went the power... 76 hours, no electricity... >_<

"I was watching some show where they said that the news media is making this seem a lot worse then it really is."

Well, mastermind, I wasn't able to watch any of the news coverage, but I heard some stuff on the radio... Tons of people without power, some without clean water, worst flooding in DC in at least 30 years...

And I don't think it was downgraded to a tropical storm until after it hit land...

Of course it's not the worst hurricane to hit the US, but it's the worst storm to hit DC in some time...
