Greetings All,
I hope those of you who live in Tidewater got through the storm
with little or no damage. Many people didn't.
Thursday night I was in a position to see electrical transformers
blowing out all around the city. It was similar to watching the
bombing of Iraq.
Many people are still without power, and many neighborhoods are
still flooded. Below is a slideshow of how the storm affected
many neighborhoods in Tidewater,The Peninsula, and N.C.
Take care everyone
