[nfbwatlk] Made it through hurricane Irene ok!

[Lauren Merryfield]

Hi,
I'm glad you guys are okay.  Sounds like you had quite a time, though.  I 
know some people back east who still don't have power.  Thank goodness for 
cell phones.
Thanks
Lauren

> Hello List
> Just a quick note to let you know that we made it through hurricane Irene 
> without problems here in Greenville NC. Greenville NC is about 70 miles 
> inland from the coast of Eastern North Carolina. It started raining here 
> around 19:00 PDT local time on Friday evening and did not stop until 20:00 
> PDT Saturday evening. At one point we had wind around 40 MPH and gusts up 
> to as high as 70 MPH. Our power dropped out several times on Saturday 
> afternoon around 14:00 PDT but was only off for about 10 minutes. There 
> have been many trees fall and much flooding so that many thousands of 
> people have lost power in the area but, again, we have been extremely 
> fortunate in that regard. Our cable TV and highspeed internet and email 
> was down for about 24 hours.
