Storm didn't blow up quite as ferociously as first feared, so it spared us the 9 ft tides...crested at 8ft. Lots of major beach erosion and back-bay flooding, but not too much property damage, thankfully. However, there is now a problem with lots of roofs collapsing all over the region (South Jersey, Delaware, Eastern Pennsylvania)...apartment buildings, private homes, schools, restaurants, factories...a real mess...not many injuries, though, so that's good. problem is the snow compacted in the late sleet/rain mix into the heavy, thick type after first blowing in all fluffy and light...and with a amt of slush underneath. Then it all froze up again without melting much. So the weight is wreaking havoc with area buildings, as Boby mentioned. Guess I'll be doing some roof clearing tomorrow.
