I have no way to know (and those in the affected areas may have no way to report) but we are concerned. Stay safe, please.
One resource: “**REDCROSS” (**73327677) on your smartphone: they have a free app that will tell you nearest shelters and what’s available…you can also download it from the apple app store or the google app source for android. They’re saying now that the extreme situation has passed, they are opening less-secure shelters to offer showers and meals to people who need same, esp. around Long Island. Other regions may be doing the same.
If anybody knows anybody who has lost books in the flooding, one resource is projectgutenberg.org, a source for classics and out-of-cooyright books, some of which might otherwise be difficult to find.
And if virtual hugs from friends will help, you’ve got them from here.
Offering sincerest condolences to those who lost loved ones in this horrific storm, and those who are now homeless.
Lost power for 4 days… consider myself fortunate as that was all that I lost. My Mom lives on Staten Island and thankfully, she was not in the devastated areas.
Blessings to all who are affected.
Welcome, and x2 on what you say.
