6. Prolly just called toll-free directory assistance since they couldn't reach local authorities.
Surprised CNN took it live though. :thumbsup:

3. No electric/water, small kids & pregnant women and all bridges washed out
But it wasn't a 'real' storm.

(I'll get that out of my system in the next 24 hours - promise)
