Deb....
The only section of the Thruway closed that was mentioned on TV last night was Albany to NYC.
Southwest of us.....Utica area got quite alot of flooding....water going over streets from smaller streams going over streets/roads. Pictures on WKTV's website. My son in Clinton is still without power....since 3 pm yesterday.
MANY (thousands) going East of here toward Gloversville/Johnstown are without power. As I'm sure there are probably alot of outages in the Albany area.
We were lucky here.....
Flooding hasn't been bad here but whether it will be is yet to be seen as some of the high waters flow in our direction. I think we would have seen it by now tho.
I am praying Ray is safe too.....anxious to hear from him.
Joanne/NY

JoAnne: glad you're ok. I see NYS got lots of flooding. Was it flooded again there near the thruway? hope Ray is ok. I have to ask him about our fishy friend, Fred (Killies), in Catskill. I see on tv they got flooded pretty bad. Here in southern SC, we got nothing (thank Goodness). We are safer than most in the south (but not 100%).
