It's 9:30 pm by the Bay and so far no trees have fallen on our house,
but there is still time. We've been having wind gusts of nearly 50 mph,
with steady breezes of about 27 mph. I hope the storm surge isn't too
bad here, although we're high up enough not to worry. But the
neighboring beaches were evacuated. We'll see what kind of mess we have
by dawn's early light.

It's moving off to the west of you, so probably the worst is over.

Barometric pressure has stabilized over most of the coastal regions
but we're still getting some big gusts in the NE NYC 'burbs.
