Hurricane Irene did not hit Westchester County as hard as predicted. However, she did knock out electric power in a number of cities and towns, such as Yorktown Heights and Ossining. Residents and businesses there were without power for more than 48 hours.
I slept through the sound and fury of Hurricane Irene. Around 8:00 am, my sister and I went to Marina, one of our hiking places and found it blocked by a police car. The path was submerged by flood. Many morning hikers like us looked amazingly at the high tide pushing water banks continuously. For some reason we were all thinking the same thought that we were lucky to be spared of any more damages!
