Just now joining this thread. My family has turned in but I can’t sleep. I’m in Central New Jersey in the Raritan river valley with clay soil and the rain is unrelenting. No wind.
We have power and have everything prepared.
We emptied out the basement of valuables and I am very happy to have found an old address book I was looking for. I thought it was long lost and now I was able to reconnect with an old friend, thanks to Irene. LOL!

no pun intended :)
Welcome. My husband turned in, but I can't sleep either. Our 15 year old has agreed not to sleep upstairs tonight, but I don't think he'll be sleeping much anywhere. We're in Montgomery County PA, north of Philadelphia. 11 hours of rain, worry about our towering trees and checking on our creek . . . it's wearying. No big wind here-yet. Still have power. If winds kick up that will likely change.
