We weathered Sandy just fine.
I was a bit concerned on Sunday night that we hadn't taken the threat of downed power lines, wind damage etc. seriously enough, so in a last ditch effort we stored some water, taped up the windows, checked the attic and cooked everything in the house.
Our power didn't even flicker, though at times it sounded like we were inside a dishwasher. I'm glad they did close the government and schools though, because having fewer people on the road in that mess was probably safer.
I teleworked Monday and Tuesday, and was back to work on Wednesday.
Based on the news coverage NY and NJ will be recovering for weeks, so I think DC got off extremely easily.
Also, after hearing about the HHS Bounty, I was doubly glad the Picton Castle was still in port.
