Everyone is like "What's the big deal". Um, we aren't used to 80mph winds that tear out trees. I'm also not used to going six hours without power - Not much to do....

I have no idea how people lived without computers and TV..... With the storm overhead it was dark out to the point where you couldn't even read a book. Thankfully we had a portable battery powered DVD player.
