I'm now in the final few hours of the aforementioned windstorm that has significantly damaged Western New York. Many trees and lines are down, and around 50,000 customers have lost power, including two bus terminals, leading to school cancellations. Winds constantly gusted over 50 MPH, sometimes even up to 60. Astonishingly, through it all, my power remained intact, although my roof has lost some shingles, many of which landed on the front lawn next door. I'm just grateful that nobody was killed, although two people in Buffalo suffered minor injuries from fallen light posts. Yeesh.
