Re: Hurricane Ike !
Here in Central Ohio we got almost no rain from the remnants of Ike, but we got 75+ mph winds on Sunday evening. Trees started falling left and right. And suddenly an estimated 2 million people were without power. We are down to about 72,000 homes without power as of 9:00 pm Friday. AEP says it will probably be the start of next week before everyone gets power back. Almost all of the schools in Central Ohio were out at least Monday and Tuesday, and it wasn't until Friday that Columbus Public Schools went back (except for 11 schools still without power). It was a very hospitable blackout period, since the temperatures were mild and there was little rain, so we really can't complain after seeing the destruction in Texas.
