At least the taxis finally got a bath...

Sort of sucks though since they no longer make the CV.

Upstate had MUCH less than forecast. Some gusty wind but less than 1/2"
of rain.
Basically a non-event so far. Power was out for about 17 hrs.

Seen a lot of the folks who REFUSED to evacuate whining that they wanted
to be rescued. My opinion is that if you stayed behind and now need
rescue you should pay for the assist.

Here in northern CT it was pretty much a non-event. For me it turned
over an empty trash can, dropped a few branches, and not much else.
Accuweather and the Governor were telling me that the sky was falling
the whole time.
Didn't even take all my leaves away

I lost power for a couple hours.

OTOH, I'm on the West Coast, so I think that blaming Fronkensturm
("It's not Frankestorm, it is Fronkensturm!") is a bit of a stretch.

Go not to the Net for answers, for it will tell you Yes and no. And
you are a bloody fool, only an ignorant cretin would even ask the
question, forty two, 47, the second door, and how many blonde lawyers
does it take to change a lightbulb.
