Irene wasn't such a bad girl. She was pretty tame compared to storms I've seen in the past. In the afternoon I walked around and filmed a little bit her effect. I edited it at Mill Creek McDonald's because they have an outlet and WiFi.
Until about an hour ago (it is 8:00 pm as I write this) some of the lights in Kightville were off. And there was a big emergency "something" (didn't seem to be a fire, or collapse, or accident...) that must have happened down there, because a ladder truck, a fire ambulance and a regular ambulance went screaming by, down Waterman Drive. [Sorry I misspelled "powerlines."]
The following is the video I made--such as it is. Nothing real dramatic, but I could certainly feel the power of the storm above me. The tide was dead low and clouds were really whipping by about 100 feet up. But on the shore where I was walking, it was relatively calm. The wind was the most prominent aspect. Even this morning it didn't rain that much. After I publish this I will return back down to Wright Park and see if the tide is coming back in very much.
Enjoy!
