At least you're not having to contend with fires where you're at.

Spoke to my dad in RI today around 1:30. Lights flickered on and off a few times but at least to that point, fortunately no power outage or damage other than a few broken tree limbs. Sounds like eye passed over Block Island. Hope everyone else is doing ok. Hurricanes (and even some tropical storms) suck.

I wish I had my camera this morning @ Prospect Park! Dozens of dogs running through the flooded lawn, pools up to 2 ft deep.
Onslow asserted order upon the pack, as he always does.
I stuck my umbrella into the ground & got soaked like a dog.
We are in Prospect 'Heights' so no real probs. I'd be surprised if the wind broke 20mph.

Oh no, I can only imagine the condition of the many unpaved roads on the island.

The storm did a dry slot pinwheel around us! Absolutely still winds all day. My rain gauge picked up a paltry 0.04" of rain by 10 AM, and went up to 0.09" by 2 PM. We had a few hours of light/moderate rain after that, and my gauge finally broke 1.00" at 7:15 PM. The rain shield is all to our west (inland) now, and we are on the back edge about to move back into the dry slot as the storm's remnants mozy west (towards NY) over CT.

I just checked the security cameras around the house. The basement is 100% dry, and there's no puddles in the low spots of the back yard. In other words, a whole lot of nothing-burger.....

If you lived there you might not notice anymore though. I guess.
