Former resident and blogger Roosevelt Island 360 emails me:

... watching CNN from where I am in Austria. Very nervous for my family and Roosevelt Island.

"CNN is reporting the East River, where Roosevelt Island and my kids are, will be where much of the water will be "piling up" from both the Long Island Sound and NY Harbor meeting in the middle [with no place to go].  I don't expect to sleep much tonight."

Can't believe all this. Irene was nothing. This is unbelievable.
