User blog comment:'Sonic the Hedgehog'/Hurricane Irene is heading to Station Square! I'm scared/@comment-3445303-20110828133051

I'm sorry, but Irene is just insane! The fact that a hurricane could destroy various areas is just incredibly depresing... And it's up here with Katrina, in my opinion.

But from what I've heard in NYC, Hurricane Irene has been downgraded into a tropical storm, so it's probably worse or for the better. I hope they stay strong!

On the brightside, for where I'm living, the hurricane wasn't much of a threat, as our power got striked down on Friday night and came right back up Yesterday in the afternoon.
