^Lol, at least Lancaster had it right, they had substantial flooding. But everywhere else, they just decided to call each other, “hey, you gonna cancel? I think I’m going to but only if you do.”
a Staples sign blew off and killed a woman in Toronto: Store was warned about sign that killed T.O. woman, area worker says | Toronto Sun
Sarnia Ontario also had some serious damage, a hotel roof ripped clean off with a bunch of people inside… no one died as far as i know: Home | London Free Press Home Page | London Free Press
other than that, not much that i can speak of in Canada
pretty sure starpoint and lockport stayed open from last i checked. seems like 90% of wny schools were closed. i went to class at buff state only to find that class was cancelled. so i went home and worked on the heated seat install in my truck. :tup:
inland damage from storm:
I just heard helpers from other states were turned away because they are not union. EPIC! This just shows how stupid people are, “We would rather continue the suffering than have a non-union worker help us.” Wow!
It was in NJ… Go figure.
I heard that in NJ they were going to have the Jersey shore group come in and do a fundraiser. Funny thing is that people in New Jersey hate and dont care for the rejects of Jersey shore.
Yep, NJ union workers turned them away. LIPA (Long Island Power Authroity) was glad to take them.
edit: just checked the thread on reddit. Apparently the story was BS

I heard the Jersey Shore house was completely OK in the storm. Omen? LOL
Didn’t they lose like 2000’ of their board walk?
I just meant the house that the cast lived in was OK. The beaches took a beating, so I’m sure the boardwalk itself is fucked.
Boardwalk isn’t just fucked… it’s in the Atlantic.
This…
Slide your mouse over to see the before and after.
Baby Jesus put an end to MTVs Jersey shore…
w00t
I’m failing to see where there is an objective difference… but yeah, ok
this is NUTS!
^ +1.
Pretty sweet… not the damage.
The lord is just.
Not being a smart ass but, why would anyone wait 6 hours in a gas line? I just saw pictures of people standing with gas cans for 6 hours. Walk to where there is traffic and get a ride. Ride a bike for 30 minutes to a gas station without a line. Call a cab. Call a friend.
Maybe I should load up the van with 5 gallon gas cans and take a road trip.
Most gas stations either don’t have any gas or don’t have any power to pump the gas. It’s not like everyone is piled up at 1 gas station while there is no line at the one down the street, lol.
