I figured Lisa was without power. Actually, she doesn't live in upper NY state. She lives about 15-20 miles over the border from western MA, in the Berkshires. If you look on a map, it's pretty far south for NY state, except for the city.
The sun is shining, but for the people without power, what good does it do? Same thing here, about 3 days until it goes back on in the towns that are without power. I would be outta here, since we don't have a wood stove. My neighbor's daughter, husband, and 3 kids who live on the NH seacoast have been here since yesterday morning. They don't know when they can go back.
