For a solid 8 - 10 hours the winds on Monday night into Tuesday morning were in the 50 - 70 mph range with gusts around 80. The few blocks around me escaped with extremely minimal damage, elsewhere is was a different story. Most gas stations were without power & if a deli or a Dunkin Donuts was open it was like the end of the world, I never saw anything like it. I was running late for work & figured i would get something at the deli next to my job. At 10 am the line was out the door, as i got closer to being served the guy yells out "the only thing left is black coffee" lol. A deli that has parking for just 2 cars so it's usually well stocked looked like a vacated business. The Dunkin Donuts down the block had food but the line was so long it would probably be an hour to get to the counter.
With so many areas devastated like the 80+ houses that burned in Breezy Point in Queens, NY & people coming together to help each other, here are people that mainly lost electricity yet were divided over food & gas. If i didn't see it i wouldn't have believed it.
