Still no power here. Could not get in to work, all the roads to Albany were closed :-\. Got the generator working to keep my basment from flooding any more. At least I can watch some TV with the satilite ::)

That stinks. Do you have a siphon pump to gas out of your vehicle?

Saw some nasty pics from Greene County posted on FB by my cousins.  Even one of the Poughkeepsie RR bridge, with the storm surge pushing the river up 4' at high tide.  Where are you Deposit?

Lots of boats went down on Lake George and some trees. All brooks in the area flooded. More pics on my phone to add when I get cell service.















A small stream decided to take a new path through this motel, used to be a lawn and beach, now rocks.
