“Many houses had water on the first floor and some are missing whole parts, and others disappeared into the bay,” she wrote. “Like me, they have no power. Gas lines continue long and people have run out of gas to run their generators. It is in the 30s at night and with no light and no heat, it is bad. I spoke to a policeman yesterday who said that, since the curfew, theft is down but people are coming on boats to steal from the open houses. To me this is incredible. We have a new storm coming … with high wind and lots of rain. If our basements flood again, progress is halted until the underground water recedes.”
