Massive explosion at NY power plant


Holy crap.




Check what happens to this building's face. Starts at the 38 second mark. Now you see it ......now you don't.

Looking past all the damage and loss of life these storms can really put on a show of mother nature.

Good luck. Can they even get on the island or to their place? I've seen those pics from Kitty Hawk and know that stretch of beach very well. Someone sent us some pics and one was of Johns (the food shack around 4 mile marker) its still standing.

We're still without power. Didn't take any damage but the neighbors all have downed trees, missing shingles etc. plenty of food and firewood so we'll get through ok.

I was in Miami for Andrew. The winds were 100 mph faster. But this thing came on shore in connection with a nor easter and the amount of water coming inland was unprecedented. My wife and her family are from seaside heights. Im from Toms River. Nobody can cross the bridge to see the damage yet. My father in laws house maybir may not be there. There were actually houses ramming bridges and there is a roller coaster in the ocean. Atlantic City boardwalk is totally gone. They could have prepared for months for this thing but short of draining the ocean temporarily there was nothing that could have been done. The ocean actually met the bay. Crazy crazy shit.
