so upon texting my friend in NJ if they're okay, this is what her response was:
"Barely. You can't enter or leave my town. The only ways out are over bridges, and they're completely underwater. The surrounding towns just opened the flood gates so my town is slowly going underwater. My power went out and <guess she made a typo here this word makes no sense> said that the power might be on in a week. My back of my highschool is underwater. I have no idea what we're gonna do."
well, stuff. NJ got forgeted up the ass apparently
