If you zoom out and look at this map, you guys seemed to have made a narrow escape in CT and most of NY.

Someone has died in Toronto because of flying debris! Stay inside!

I also know someone from NYC who says it isn't too bad - YET. The storm is supposed to be at its most intense in the middle of the night there..

I hope everyone and their families can stay safe :(

Reporting from Charleston, WV - my school has been cancelled today due to winter snow conditions! Multiple deaths in WV, NY, etc. Rain and snow and wind is just going crazy here! The grunt of it is hitting here right now, but I know other places have been having it a lot worse and I just hope this isn't like the June 29 derecho, I was without power for 12 days, and Obama did sign for the State of Emergency last night.

One of my good friends has family in NJ and she posted pictures of water about half as high as the street lights! And that's from Long Beach Island down to Atlantic City from my understanding. Rob! Hope you're okay! And anyone else in NJ.

The streets in downtown Manhatten were covered in about 3 ft of water last night too. :/ Doesn't look so bad now on the live shot the weather channel just showed. But dang. :/ And now snow in a lot of places? That is definitely not something we have to deal with in Florida.

Hope everyone in the path is doing ok!

We dodged a bullet in Virginia. Most of the damage is in Northern Virginia. Here in Central Virginia, we came through pretty good compared to past hurricanes. Prayers go out to those up north. Looks like they got hit pretty hard.

So far we lost power and a ton of trees came down. Luckily we really didnt get the amount of rain as expected, so flooding in this general area isn't super bad.

we lost power for about 10 hours here in northern va. A few trees down around the area. Nothing major at my house though.
