If you didn't stay in Cambridge, rest assured that there was no serious damage to the building. Winds did get strong into the evening hours. Rain was heavy. We did not lose power.
The biggest fear was high water which never occurred. The water level never got higher than normal high tide.
Most boat owners doubled-up their bow and stern lines for more security.
It paid off.
Only one boat "Playing Hookey" lost a bow line. They did not double up. AS a result, the beam of the boat was rubbing against the finger peer. Surprisingly, there was no hull damage, but at this writing, the bow line is still loose. A fender has been placed on the finger peer to protect the beam.
Other boats with plastic rain covers have un-snapped but no tearing.
There is a possibility of high water to follow the storm due to watershed run-off.
Stay tuned.
