We got lucky here around DC. She ended up skirting just east of us. Lots of people in Maryland without power, but that seems to happen when it dizzles also.

We got hit harder in Richmond,Chesterfield,Henrico and Hanover than up at the lake.We are currently staying in our RV in the driveway.It's nice to have A/C and Hot water.

Still don't have power.Dominion Virginia Power said 75% of customers would have power by Wednesday and 95% by Friday.
