I was going to say, I want your power company!

I hope your mom gets her power back soon.

Im right outside the city in CT, but there were some REALLY bad thunderstorms earlier. The thunder shook the whole house. They didn't last long, but from what I understand, a lot of people in the tri-state area are out of power.

Thanks, CJ, I got out of the theater at exactly 9:25, and there was an unbelievable lightening strike and thunderstorm, but, thankfully only for 10 minutes.

My mom is at her house in Bergen County right now. I just got off the phone with her and she didn't mention anything about a blackout.

Hope it won't last long. At least the weather now is down to the low 70s now..compared to the low 80s it was last night.

I live in Essex county, and there are power outages in Essex, Passaic, and Bergen. Estimates are 600,000 people are without power. Could take a while to get everyone restored. I am lucky to have power, but parts of my town are out.
