Keep up the good work Satta, it will be an interesting 24 hours

Sounds like Irene is finally outside...

It's still pretty quiet here in Ossining.

Chestnut Ridge, 10:20pm- light rain and very light wind so far.

Nyack, 1:01am- raining (but not too hard) and hearing the very small start of some wind gusts approaching. Have been told that no cars are allowed on the roads until 6pm sunday night. No business are allowed to open tomorrow in Clarkstown either.
Anyone else local seen any real wind yet?

Winds are definitely picking up now in Nyack.

2.95 inches of rain thus far since the rain started Saturday night. Track it here www.tarrytownnyweather.com

FOr NYSEG outage information and estimated restoration times.... http://www.nyseg.com/Outages/outageinformation.html

Of course if your power is out you probably aren't reading this (unless you on a 3G/4G device).

it's pouring, lightening for a few seconds, heavy winds and lights flickered a bit here in Eastchester.

Power out here in bedford. Wind still blowing hard. Comes in spurts.Rain coming down very hard as well. Tornado watch till 5. Hope it doesn't come to that.

Putnam Valley- been raining hard all night- lights flickered twice, wind picking up now..

Greenbugh-Old Tarrytown Road area still has power, but heavy winds and rain 7:00am Sun

Anyone else have no FIOS TV working? All of my boxes are down. At least we still have power. Stay safe!

White Plains, on the Ridgeway Golf Course - 1 foot of water in basement so far, electricty is on, pumps working but not fast enough!! coming in from street/water pipes backing up!! I guess the county trunk lines can't handle the flow.

How is it in Pearl River?

How is everything at Purchase College. Dropped my daughter off yesterday and I have not heard from her... Worried

anyone know how things are in new rochelle? can't get hold of my son at IONA..Helpful information is appreciated

Hi Zap, one of our readers just said Iona has power. Don't know about local road conditions there.

Woke up at 2 a.m. with a jolt here in Hastings. One of the giant silver maple trees at the edge of our property fell, barely grazed the corner of the kitchen. Even in the dark knew how very lucky we had been/are. Electricity still on, lots of water around.

Power out before 7AM at Starr Ridge Manor repair time unknown. I had 5" in my rain guage overnite. Leaves and twigs all over. Have to run generator nearly constantly because sump pumps on most of the time.

No power in Mt. Kisco since middle of the night. Foggy and raining heavily. Wind not too bad. Comes in spurts. Signing off to save battery.

9:55 Here on Reynal Road in White Plains things are fine. Lots of wind and rain, but the roads in our immedaite neighborhood are fine and no major trees are down. Power is on. However, if you look in the back yard, the Mamaroneck River is just RAGING, bringing our runoff down to them through the way our storm drain system is designed. I saw on News 12 that Center Ave in Mamaroneck is flooded, but a homeowner says it's not as bad as the 2007 flood. He was carrying things out of his parent's house for them and he said that the basement is flooded, but to a lower water level than 2007. The water keeps coming after a storm ends, so I hope he keeps thinking of it as a handleable event that they have been through before.
We should always keep in mind that every time and upstream town adds a storm drain to dry off a lot for builders, it adds to the water problems downstream.

Yorktown has power. Storm doesn't seem so bad after all.

It was 78 and sunny here in Oakland Ca.BUT 85 in Napa yesterday where I played golf and the WINDS were blowing about 15-20MPH made golf harder to play!!! THANKS for all your concerns (grew up in Brewster!) I'm glad your ALL safe!

Saw mill river is flooding and leaving lots of water in pleasantville. No power. Rain no winds

We just lost our power in Pelham Manor....

I am in Yorktown and lost power at 5:30 and it's still out. I am a ConEd customer.

how are things in pvle?

Mass hysteria for NOTHING! The storm we had last year (March or April if I can recall) was much worse than this with much higher winds that were way more damaging. I am glad it was nothing the panic that was created was unnecessary.

Had two momentary power blips, 10:10 and 10:40 am, but so far we continue to have power... Winds were loud enough at 3 am to have woken my wife and me up but we went back to bed. Keep up the good work with the board.

Cellar flooded even with 2 pumps! We now have an 'indoor' pool in our basement, do I need a building permit for that? Pool opens at 12 noon, free swim at 1pm, bring your own towels, can't BBQ due to rough weather so and stop at any of our local eateries and BYOFood! Listen, if you don't laugh at it, you will cry (: I've cried enough this month..........stay in & stay happy today, tomorrow brings the sun back!
Ada

Yorktown heights - NYSEG customer - lost power for 2 hours around midnight. I enjoyed a nice breakfast with hot coffee, eggs, and toast and the power went out again. I've checked with NYSEG and it seems almost if not all Yorktown customers are without power and there is no estimate for restoration yet

How are things around Arcadin Shopping Center in Ossining? Is there power along Rockledge Ave? Can you get from Taconic to Arcadin Shopping Center?

Does anybody know how the flooding is around Columbus Park near the Mamaroneck train station? Thank you!

any news on the katonah area on parkway by the train station

HOW IS JEFFERSON VILLAGE, ALOT OF SENIORS THERE

Sun just popped for like 3 seconds!! White Plains: Ridgeway has a pond or 2 or 3 or more, the manhole cover on the border between the 12th Hole and the Driving rage was spouting upwards like a fountain - the 12th Hole is a marsh and the tennis courts are surrounded by Ridgeway Pond - the ducks love it!! Sun is out again!! Yea! still pumping out - seems like my beighbors have installed backflow preventers. I did not. Seems like I got their "water". I think I'll get a gamma globulin shot.

anyone know about power outages in millwood?

11:30 AM, Route 6N at Boniello Drive in both directions - closed due to a tree across the road - utility truck on site. 6N into Mahopac has alot of flooding and down power lines.

Tree down on house on Randy Lane in Pleasantville.

I just checked ConEd's website and they now have an estimated repair time of 6pm today for me in Yorktown.

Storm was more hype than storm. Maybe our "government" wants to see how the population reacts to being restricted in travel - use the "crisis" to test out stuff, like Mayor Boomberg. We did get a lot of rain, but our "government" although on notice about inadequate storm drains and sewer capacity, DOES NOTHING.

I guess we now must serve official notice of inadequate stormdrains and sewers and flooding/drain back ups/conditions therefrom - pre condition to litigation. Wonder if we can use the Council TV and other written letters and comments as adequate and timely notice. Have to check the case law.

While flooding doesn't seem to be as bad as from the big ones in 2007, this is still a major event. Indian Village has water that's, maybe, only a foot shallower than four years ago. The businesses on Elm street got whacked - probably as bad as the 2007 flood. Not as many trees down, but the gov't announcements and precautions seem to have been totally appropriate. Better safe than sorry.

Is there power in Tarrytown? I just want to make sure I can open my office tommorrow. We are at 155 White Plains Rd. By the entrance to the TZ bridge. Does anyone know? Thanks

Ada, Where do you live? If you ask for help, you might get some volunteers, or maybe someone with a pump and is lucky enough to not need to use it might help you out. Why don't you try doing a shout-out?

For people who want to get up and out, the Midway Shopping Center on Central Ave has many stores open. The ones I noticed were ShopRite, Sam's Camera Exchange, CVS and the Halloween outfit store. Driving home, I saw that Pizza and Brew and the new big diner are open. On Gedney Way in White plains, Sams is closed and so is Rooster's. The Gedney Deli is open. If you want to see dramatic flooding views, go to the Hartsdale Avenue bridge, over the Bronx River Parkway. The Parkway is just a wide river when you look upstream. From the Popham Rd bridge in Scarsdale, the , the parkway looks dry, but the river is just raging.

Are the Avalon Willow apartments accessible yet? Went earlier and all roads leading there were flooded and blocked. I'm talking about Mamaroneck Ave and New and Grand Streets. Near the Hess Station and the A&P.

Johan, I just went down there to check out the area for Emma. Coming from White Plains, I could only get to the Hess station. The police have Mamaroneck Ave blocked off there. I didn't ask about accessibility to the Avalon Apartments because I didn't see your note yet. I could see the water was going right up to 3 Jalapenos and the car wash. When I turned to leave, I could see that a little ways in the Nostrand floodline starts. It still looks pretty bad to me, but not as bad as '07.

Does anyone know if there's a restoration time for Con ed customers in Mt Kisco/Bedford? There site doesn't work on my phone, and that's all I have. Thanks

I want to go back there to photograph what I can. Johan, Emma or anyone who is interested on when it's OK to go back can call me at 262-9208. Please don't call me if you're not calling about that. I will try to check out what I can for anyone from that Howard Ave/Columbus Park area.

How is Larchmont? Have not seen any postings.

Here is a link to an earlier article: http://patch.com/A-l4q7
Most of the damage in Larchmont seems to be downed trees and wires, with some streets closed due to flooding. In my travels, I saw a lot of branches and leaves on the road. The waters at Manor Park are high, but the park itself is not flooded. Hope that helps.

@Ann. We checked the Con Ed map and there's no estimated restoration time yet for Mt. Kisco/Bedford. It just says pending.

The wind is picking up in Montrose and I am more nervous now than last night.

In Mamaroneck directly behind the evacuation school & winds are strong going south southeast. We currently have power but the winds are picking up & I am concerned that the storm is not over yet. I know there are streets around us that are flooded and will not be going out to adventure into the danger, it's better watching from my window. I feel so sorry for the thousands without power as at least I can make a hot cup of coffee & maybe some soup for dinner.

Anything new with NYSEG in yorktown?

High wind gusts here in Tarrytown topping out right now at 28 MPH; speeds should pick up as the storm continues to clear out with gusts up to 46 MPH. http://www.tarrytownnyweather.com/index.php

High wind gusts in Scarsdale. Wondering if this means more trees down and more power outages!

@Satta thank you for checking for me

Louise - Here's where I went in Larchmont and all was clear: I went up Rte 1, coming from MAMARONECK. I turned onto the road that has the artist guild (MAG) on the corner. I made a right onto Palmer and went all the way back down to Mamaroneck. All was clear.

Emma, I just drove by Columbus Park. There are no police roadblocks on Mamaroneck Avenue anymore and many of the businesses are open. Haiku, Sal's Pizza, Cafe Mozart and Herradura to name a few. The park itself looked OK from my view from Mamaroneck Ave.

The wind has been kicking up again, though. I think that a main danger, though is that the traffic lights aren't working, and it seems that it's a free-for-all at intersections. There are some dominant ones of our species who believe that when you come to an intersection with no working traffic lights, the one driving faster has the right of way. The submissive ones who are trying to avoid them might have to wait a bit. The problem will be when two dominant ones get there at the same time.

The flooding in the Howard Ave area didn't look as bad to me as it did in 2007. A big problem I saw, though was that a guy who lives 2 houses away from the church had his heating oil somehow disconnect and heating oil was spilled all over the place and now aside from the water issue, the neighbors now have the stench of heating oil permeating the air. I overheard a cop say that a danger was that with the wond kicking up, if a tree branch snapped and took down wires or just caused a spark itself it could be a really dangerous situation.

On the bend of Mamaroneck Ave, near Columbus Park many of the businesses had their sump pumps dumping out onto the sidewalk. On N Barry Ave, I saw sump pumps dumping away, too. # Jalapenos had their sump pump bailing out, too, but that's much better than 2007, when the water was over their tabletops inside.

I met a lady just now who told me that she has no power her in Mamaroneck and she lives on Palmer Ave. many people are happy that the sports Club on Palmer is open because it's where they're killing time and showering. It's getting a lot of use.

I've been running around Mamaroneck photographing the Mamroneck River because I thought we were so unscathed in my WP neighborhood, but a lady just told me that she just lost her power 4 hours ago and she's from WP. She lives across from Saxon Woods Pool. I tried to call home and there's no answer, so now I'm thinking that a new issue may have come up. I'm heading home.

I stopped in at Mamaroneck's Avalon, in case Johan is still curious. A lady who lives there said that although they have no power, people are living there. She said the toilets flush. She said the parking garage is dirty and some people are using it and some people are afraid that with another tide, the water will come back, so people are disagreeing as to whether to park in there or not. So Johan, if you're still reading this, I guess go back if you don't mind living with flashlights and candles. You can just walk to one of the great downtown restaurants that are open. Aside from the other ones I mentioned, Emilio's is open, too.

So, Dan, you're saying that the widespread power outages are just the "government" testing us and the storm wasn't really that bad?

Any info on Soundview Ave in White Plains by Congregation Kol Ami??

Winds really howling? When R they going to subside? NO power here in Ossining by the Claremont school... Winds making Me nervous as I seen tree & debris flying.

Just checked Con Ed map and estimated restoration times for those w/o power is Sept. 1, 11:59 p.m.

Was at Stop & Shop on Palmer Ave at 7 PM, store was almost completely empty. Cashiers were all bored with slowness. They had cases of water, fresh meats, milk and plenty of fresh vegetables.

To Gerrie: We went by that way around noon and all was passable. We made the first left after Kol Ami to go to Scarsdale, though, so I didn't see the rest of Soundview Ave.

Good night Irene , Good night Irene I'll see you in .........

No power in Ossining on Cedar Lane. Anyone else?

Are there any work crews in Yorktown??? 14hours and counting!

Wow! Thank you so much to the patch community for answering my questions! I went back to pick up some work clothes at around 5PM. The water was still flooding the garage and there was a Toyota Camry parked in the lot that was clearly destroyed. The seats were muddy. I have a picture on my blackberry and judging by the water line on the building it looks like the water got as high as 4 feet or so. I'm so glad I listened to the warnings.

Was able to grab work suit and rescue the top of my wedding cake that we are saving for our 1st anniversary from the freezer.

Going to spend another night in Port Chester at my sister in law's house. Power is on and it doesn't smell ike sewage. Windystill though. I thought this was supposed to be gone by now.

Johan! You have to share a picture of the your rescued wedding cake! So glad you are OK. If you send to kathleenATpatchDOTcom we'll feature it in our followups on the storm.

Any news on any flooding or trees down in North side of Katonah (Todd Road)?

Con Ed was claiming no estimated time for me and then my power came back on just before 8pm. I was shocked (and thrilled). I was really prepared for another day without power, since their website had originally said 3pm, then went back to no time, and my neighbors told me that the blocks on either side of us had gotten their power back already. Never realized so many people on the block had generators!

Thank you Stefani and Paula for info on Larchmont. Safe evening to all.

I'm on rt 132 still waiting for NYSEG. Wish they could fix it soon

Larchmont, Turtle Park area: Lost power Sunday a.m., came back at 3:30, but then went out again at about 10 p.m. Go figure! Con Ed truck showed up about 15 minutes ago - let's hope they get it back up.

I was just at Burke Rehab in White Plains and a lady signing in said it took her two hours to get there from Chappaqua and it would usually take her a half hour. I asked her if trees had fallen across the highways and she said that the roads were all clear, but since the traffic lights weren't working, the cars stop at all intersections and there were big back-ups.

I just got this link -- incredibly scary photos! http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/frightening-hurricane-irene-destruction-photos

Is anyone else having problems with Verizon landline? Ours has been out since early Sunday, and the main repair number (800-837-4966) isn't working - just gives a steady beep.
