I got a Hurricane Day off work. This is a familiar thing to people who live on a coast but I live in Ohio. Today I ventured out to get some gas as my car was in need. I sat in a line at Sam's for an hour and half and left without gas. I was one car away when I arrived but then the pumps lost power or their computer link or something. It was scary driving through some major intersections without the lights but I made it there and back without incident.
This morning there were still over 500,000 down from 650,000 without power. I was fortunate to only loose power for 4 hours. I saw lots of damage, my house just lost a few shingles but other homes on my route to get gas where not so fortunate. I was also able to get gas later on in the day. We didn't get any of the rain they had originally forecasted. This is a blessing.
I am in prayer for those without power or who lost loved ones or property. QP
