I just got up and it's calm outside. According to the radar, the eye
is just to our northeast and it has 75MPH winds, yet we have gusts of
maybe 40MPH here. I've seen stronger nor'easters. There are no trees
down within sight. Heck, I've seen more leaves blown off the trees in
a nor'easter. I was up around 4am when the storm was less than 50
miles from us and even then the winds were nowhere near hurricane
strength. The eye of this storm passed within about 20 miles of us.
Talk about anti-climactic. I'm sure there is flooding along the shore
areas, but otherwise Irene has not done much at all.
