The Weather Channel: Attention Turns to Disastrous Flooding, Massive Power Outages Ongoing, widespread flooding is the legacy of Irene in the Northeast and New England. As countless communities deal with awful flooding losses, crews say it could take weeks to restore power to millions from the Carolinas into New England. Irene Forecasters Missed Storm’s Intensity While Correctly Predicting Path: May cost insurers as much as $3 billion to cover U.S. damage, with overall economic losses of $7 billion Forecasters overestimated the strength of Hurricane Irene even as they accurately predicted the direction and timing of the storm’s destructive path along the U.S. East Coast. “This was one of their better forecasts,” Hans Graber, a professor of marine physics at the University of Miami, said in a telephone interview. “Definitely, it helped to save lives.” “We’re still not where we want to be on intensity,” Ken Clark, a senior meteorologist with AccuWeather Inc., said in a telephone interview. Irene may cost insurers as much as $3 billion to cover U.S. damage, with overall economic losses of $7 billion, according to Kinetic Analysis Corp., which predicts disaster impact. The U.S. suffered $35 billion in losses in nine separate events so far in 2011, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, tying a record for disasters causing more than $1 billion damage in a single year. 4 Million without power

"The men who have done the most for God in this world have been early on their knees. He who fritters away the early morning, its opportunity and freshness, in other pursuits than seeking God will make poor headway seeking Him the rest of the day. If God is not first in our thoughts and efforts in the morning, He will be in the last place the remainder of the day." - E. M. Bounds
