I am on the border of PA and NJ on the NJ side of the Delaware River. For Irene, we lost power for 4 days but had a small generator that assisted us in keeping the basement from flooding (sump pump and other pumps). Again, we lost power yesterday but just got it back. Many river people (we are 1 mile away from the river) are under water. In northern NJ, the Rahway and Passaic Rivers have caused massive devastation as the population is higher up there. I have many friends and acquaintances in deep trouble there. I hope everyone is safe on this board that might be affected.
