You got lucky man, some people were stranded for 10+ hours in gridlock traffic. It started coming down at 4inches+ an hour with 70mph wind gusts in the early evening hours.



I lost power for about 4 hours, all roads coming in and out of my house were shutdown because they couldn't clear the roads fast enough.
