For a week leading up to today, we’ve been hearing about Hurricane Irene, coming straight up the coast and down our throats. My family and I jumped in a rental SUV and headed north to upstate NY and VT, on an already-scheduled vacation. We drove out a couple of days early, because we didn’t want to be trapped in town if there was flooding and damage that blocked roads. It turns out Hoboken didn’t have any problems that it doesn’t have during a regular rainstorm (but several towns in upstate NY and VT were hit hard).
