As of this morning there were 5 generators there. According to the article since Obama declared a state of emergency, those generators can be seized to help people. It's 51 degrees in NY right now at 11:15 their time. How cold is it going to get tonight, especially for people with no electricity or heat?

The National Guard was handing out food to people in need last night. The NYPD are occupied putting barricades up for the marathon. Bloomberg is just fucking stupid.

Its pretty cold at night on Far Rockaway: since I was stuck there overnight on the 20th floor at my grandparents place, I had to sleep in a robe and covered with 3 blankets. The only electricity is the lights on the 1st floor and in the halls of the floors. After 7pm - lights out.
