Miraculously, our house never lost power, but in my attic bedroom I didn't get much sleep. I started out thinking, "Wheee, this is kind of fun...curled up with my kitty and my cup of tea...". Not too much later, the cat was freaking out and I had pretty much pulled the blankets right over my head. The wind whipping around the eaves and the fig tree outside banging against the house (it's a miracle the windows weren't broken!) were, not to put too fine a point on it, scary as hell. And I usually love storms!
Anyway, no serious damage done on my end, but just a few blocks north of us was a big power outage. We definitely got off lucky.
