Tonight -- going into the village -- nearly every major street is closed -- but the storm has been over for 12+ hours! Was Maplewood really hit that bad by Isabel?

Nothing too major in my yard, but it did do some minor damage to a screen door (actually to the closer mechanism) and overturn a couple of patio chairs ... all while the sun was shining during the middle of the day.   peteglider Citizen Username: Peteglider Post Number: 238 Registered: 8-2002 Posted on Friday, September 19, 2003 - 11:13 pm:        wow -- i hope that no homes were damaged by the wind or falling trees. the outer banks of nc got smacked hard -- many, many homes lost. we were very fortunate   toad Real Name Username: Toad Post Number: 88 Registered: 6-2001 Posted on Saturday, September 20, 2003 - 5:52 am:        The streets were closed for quite a while because the fallen trees/limbs had pulled down electrical wires with them and the Shade Tree Department was waiting for Public Service to make the area safe.
