While Hurricane Irene pummeled the East Coast, businesses and residences throughout the New York Metro area braced for the worst. Many were affected indeed. Reading an article about Mamaroneck, a town in Lower Westchester, just 32 miles north of Manhattan, 40% of its village was affected by her wrath. Flooding, wide-spread power outages, and downed trees were the bulk of her affects.
