Yup, I'm on high ground surrounded by low. I couldn't have gotten out
until about noon Monday? That per the reports as I didnt actually try.
Most had cleared off but there were seeming critical blocks still along
Rosemont, Lynnhaven, and Silina? N Plaza still too at that time. Some
were trees, others were water.

Had a funny driving home today. A Dominion power truck followed by a
Cox truck followed by a Verizon truck followed by a tree removal
company...
