Roads are bad pretty much everywhere. I had to go from Hamilton to Edison at 6 am, just north of 287 on Rt 1. I had to take many detours to get here.

Be safe and just with this all out.

Pretty calm here, didn't lose power here even though Tim lost his around the block.

I just feel bad for the shore communities, they got blasted and we're assuming my family lost their boats...good thing for insurance.

We had that happen with a prior storm so I mad sure the screens were lifted up a little to make sure the water could drain out. I don't think we ever lost power which is nice. I just got back from the river and pulling the dock and steps in. Lots of debris coming down the river and it's still coming up.

Sewer system backed up and I got some water in the crawl space. Everything is elevated but I have the sump and two aux pumps working. My neighbor gets sewage backup and he is miserable. No power loss and no damage to the house or cars. Wind is picking up again but the sun is out.

Got a couple of inches of water in the basement and backyard. Besides that and a few branches in the yard, its fine here. We lost power at midnight for like 30secs then it came back on. I imagine some of the main roads are flooded, being that they flood under normal conditions

Lost power for 2 minutes a little bit ago. Just windy and a little bit of rain up here. Had a branch down. Called down to Forked River, only lost the lid to one of those plastic sheds. Water came within 1 foot of top of bulkhead supposedly.

I have no damage here still on the mountain. In the valley is another story.

Makes you realize how insignificant we are in the grand scheme of things doesn't it?

Took me 2 hours to make my normally under 20 minute commute from Ewing to Plainsboro today. Ended up having to go through Trenton, Hamilton to 33 to Old Trenton Road, to 571, then out to 130 up near Cranberry to cut back over and get to Rt 1. (Dey Road to Scudders Mill Rd. to Rt 1 North is open, iin case anyone needs to go that way). South of Scudder's Mill Rd. Rt 1 is completely shut down until the other side of the 95 / 295 interchange. Major flooding there.
