Maybe I will get a chance to go then.

Probably not. It takes a long time to get your paperwork cleared.

Yea, that's DRT wide. And actually if they need a hundred more trucks, I still probably will go. It'll take a while to mobilize that many more crews
 
I was on standby for a few hours this afternoon, then they cancelled us.
It's the 3rd or 4th time thus far my division has put people and standby and then pulled the plug.

Jon
 
Ya we were cancelled :-(

I think maybe you have to watch it. He comes off like a total jerk who doesn't give a rats arse. I watched one of them at work with a co-worker who is a die hard conservative (not republican, conservative) and even he said it was pretty harsh (and he likes Chris Christie).

And I think thats a typical Jersey attitude. Hewas also the one who told people to "get the hell off the beach" during Irene. It's just a mentality of our state

My swift water crew still pulled dozens out, but they get an ear full
 
They just mobilized la county amr unity. We sent 12 i think? With a second wave on standby
 
Seems like most of the units are needed in the NY area. The FOB in NJ is being relocated to Brooklyn, NY.
 
Saw ABC news article about evacuatig a NY hospital and responder with back to camera had dark tshirt reading "NorCal Strike Team".
 
My car was blocked in on either end of my street by fallen trees and power lines.

Couldn't make it to work obviously.

Boss tells me "That's not our fault you shouldn't have parked near trees."

Where did she expect me to park? The expressway?

Neighborhood is trashed.

Thankfully I don't live near the water. Volunteer fire and FDNY both list ambulances and fire vehicles to the flood.
