Re: OT-CHAT: Isabel?


Hi All,

     We're still recovering from Isabel down here in the Norfolk, Virginia Beach area.  Trees are down everywhere! I have been without power since last Thursday here in Portsmouth, VA, but I understand that power is slowly being restored elsewhere.  One of our iris society member had a tree fall on the end of their home and now it is condemned. I was much luckier!  Trees fell down in my lot, but off into a vacant lot behind my home.  Lots of branches down in the garden though.  Have already put out 64 bags of debris. One of our major tunnels is flooded, so traffic in and out of Norfolk is really a challenge.  We're all just thankful that it was a cat 1 storm and did not come ashore as a cat 3 or 4 storm.  I understand from those who have been down to Nags Head that it really looks different.  The storm created a new inlet about 10 ft deep and 40 ft long.
