PHOTOS of destruction from Long Island

[Renew Deal]

The storm that passed through here on Saturday was brutal. It's easily the worst storm since Hurricane Gloria. There are lots of trees and power lines down. There's lots of damage to homes and businesses. Most of it is roof damage. I know several people without power. I don't have cable, phone, and internet. The damage isn't severe, but it is widespread. This story is severely underreported right now. Here's a link from Saturday: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=7911934&mesg_id=7911934

Here are some pictures I took in a fairly small area in south Nassau.













Sunrise Highway in Freeport. Thank God no one was killed.






Just one tiny example of the damage businesses took. Most of these awnings were shredded.
