I am a witness and will have images of the downed trees. The images will (I took some pictures) will come tomorrow as I imagine I will have quite a few and given the damage just outside my door, there may be a lot of pictures. I might have witness statements later as well. Jason Safoutin 00:58, 13 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

I am in the Western part of Rochester, NY. We are fine here, however there is a lot of road closures starting at the thruway in Henrietta, NY. We have had light snowfall accumalation mainly on roofs and cars. Also school closings have been posted in areas of Genessee and Ontario counties. --- Anthony Ward

Channel 2 has just reported the number of people without power is now 300,000, as I'm a Wikinews noob, how would I go about sourcing a newscast? --Lightdarkness 13:31, 13 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

I've added the information, let me know if there is anything else I should be doing [1] --Lightdarkness 13:43, 13 October 2006 (UTC)Reply
