Wow, that was worse than i expected. We lost power for 24 hours, my neighbor lost it for 48 hours. I lost a Bradford Pear in my front yard. The scariest thing was when i was watching Trading Spaces or some other stupid designing show when the beep noise came on and said flip to channel 8, so i did, and it said "Sorry, guys, but if you live in this Area (points to N.Va) you should watch out for flash floods, contaminated water, rolling blackouts, rising winds and flying objects." I kept watching to see if any goats would fly by my window.
