I don't know how many there are (I can think of three or four potential) but we should be thinking of them.
This morning I've talked to people in NY and St. Louis who have been effected seriously by these two situations, both entering the second week. One acquaintance in NY who isn't a photographer (yes there are a few in the world) has power, but colleagues from work are staying in their living room.
St. Louis is VERY hard hit. The son of friend has been primarily staying at his work place as long as he can everyday as it still has some power and thus A.C. Many people who can are driving across the river into Illinois or many miles up or down the Mighty Mississippi to find places to eat and cool off. Lots of shelters set up and St. Lo is the land of the midnight generator hummmmm.
I am/have been PM'ing some people just to let them know we are thinking of them and hope some of the rest of you will do so too.
Anyone else with stories to relate? Photos are great!
GOOD LUCK to all!!
