We're still waiting for the back end of Irene, but we've survived the rains. It looks like the main part missed us or it hit while we were sleeping and we just woke up to the destruction. Personally it doesn't seem like it was as bad as they said it would be, at least not here. I can see the trees whipping around as I write this, but considering they were calling for wide spread flooding here in town and they did issue an evacuation, it's not as bad as it could have been.
We still have power at the house, although I don't think the neighbors do. And my parents don't have any. There's a little water in the basement and the back yard is a lake like usual, but the trees are intact for the most part. I took a few pictures, but per my cousin's orders (he's a firefighter in town) did not venture out of our yard.
