    As of right now it's light rain and it's still very windy. I think the winds are around 55 mph. At one point, there was this strong gust of wind and I swear I thought the roof was going to come off. Luckily, that didn't happen. I'm glad the power hasn't gone off yet.

    I'm glad the hurricane is over, atleast where I live it is. There was no damage to my house. Only two trees fell down here and there is some minor flooding but it's not too bad.


    Also I think some people did die due to the hurricane in the North Carolina/Virginia area. *shakes head*.

    We got some rain and we still have heavy winds, but I think that's mostly what we're going to get, because it cleared up. *sigh* We never get anything exciting here.

    Fifteen dead in US storm


    Isabel has weakened but is still packing a punch
    At least 15 people have died and millions have been left without power after storm force winds wrought havoc across north-east United States.


    :'(

    More... :'(

    17 now... That's sad... But the world has seen worst...

    Isabel death toll now 17

    Even here, up north, we can feel what's happening, but on a smaller scale. It's pretty windy and raining right now.

    I'm happy no one on these forums seem to have been hurt :) .

    17 already? That's horrible, and to think that all of these deaths have just happened within the past few hours.

    No offence to anybody that got hit by Isabell....but

    I actually wanted it to hit NJ
    I mean, its like I wanted it to coem to break the monotony of things around here...but I didnt want it to take any lives or cause any major major damage.

    I can't believe that many people died.
    Its so sad that it happened...but I agree with Fred Durst

    Damn nothing exciting in New York. I wanted more wind...and classes to get cancelled XD

    In all seriousness, I'm actually glad we didn't get much. I wouldn't want to hear about people getting injured on their way back from one of the off campus parties because of the rain & high winds.
