    Sorry for the double post. I'm using my phone since I don't have electric.

    Central ohio isn't bad. Some wind, a crazy dusting of snow that lasted about an hour.

    My emergency plan is break out the kerosene heaters if it gets really cold, which it hasn't. Otherwise, my old dinosaur of a gas stove does a great job of heating this place. If I lose electricity for any lengthof time the snakes get bagged and put into a "5 day" super-duper cooler with three 2-liters of warm water. I'm going to eventually have to break down and get a generator for their racks, but right now with only ten of them it's not so bad.

    Southern NJ here. We made out ok because we're more inland, about 15 minutes outside Philadelphia. We lost power at 7pm last night and got it back at 1pm today. There are a bunch of downed trees and such blocking some roads, but we got off easy compared to the shore. The entire Jersey shore has been decimated by this storm...

    I luckily dodged a bullet myself. I'm about 35min northwest of Atlantic city. I feel for everyone on the coast. I was supposed to go out to assist with water rescues today but it got called off for my station. good thing my family sold our wildwood house last summer....

    Where in NJ? Sounds like you can't be more than 15-20 minutes from me... Yeah, looking at the pics of the shore, my heart goes out to anyone living in that area. (Wildwood/Cape May)

    I just realized I'm pretty much a straight shot west from A/C. Not soo much NW.
