I'm good. No damage to property, car's ok.

Lost power from Monday night until last night.

Only good thing to come out of this is that my job is giving away free gas to employees today and tomorrow (just so we don't have any excuse not to come to work!

)

Thanks for the reports, everyone! My sympathy to everyone suffering losses and glad to hear some dodged all the bullets. Yeah the odd/even days thing and the long lines for buying gas sure does bring back '70s memories.

just got power back after almost 5 days without. almost immediately i went and took a hot shower. could barely see anything in the bathroom as the temp in there was prob ~50F, so much steam haha. good luck to all those who still don't have power.

Same here. Charging as many things as possible in case it's just a tease, but nice to have light!

My power just came on today, now i need to wash my car and wax it for the next storm.

Washed my car today after the storm and she's looking pretty. Just glad there was no damage to her even after leaving it outdoors. Hope everybody else's car and themselves are ok. Next issue to tackle - trying to get gas without waiting on line for 4 hours.

Drive to CT. It'll be faster. Go past Greenwich though.

privfaith · 11-04-2012, 02:25 PM

Yea I'm in the same boat. They don't have 93 anywhere and seem to be only getting 87. I'm hoping that by Tuesday things will be resolved.

I know of a few gas stations up here next to the Taconic parkway were out of gas Friday and Saturday. Didn't seem like they were today. Though that's a farther drive.

I HAVE POWER!!!!

NYC BRZ · 11-06-2012, 02:47 AM

Just drove from Flushing to the CT welcome center in I think Darien to get gas. BRZ is full, brothers G6 GT is full and brought back 14 gallons for my parents. Waited all but 15 minutes when we got there. I averaged 35 mpg on the way back too! Barely moved off F.

few of my buddies were going to CT for gas too. i think this whole gas thing should be resolved within the week though. i got gas on sunrise highway sunday afternoon and it was only about a 45min wait. wasn't too bad.

GregV · 11-06-2012, 07:58 AM

There was no line at the station by me last night. Last week it was 6 miles long.

White Shadow · 11-06-2012, 10:19 AM

I'm in Rockland County and our gas lines disappeared two days ago. Actually, I filled up at the Sunoco station on the Garden State Parkway (the last one in Montvale) on Sunday evening and there were no lines.
