Village Residents Offer Up Photos As Irene Gets Close

Out walking before the storm? Send us whatever pictures you can of pre-storm action. You can post them here or email them to judy.mottl@patch.com

As Babylon Village, and the rest of the northeast of the country, counts down the hours to Irene's arrival sometime early Sunday morning, residents are snapping photos and sharing here on Patch.

Several of these photos were emailed in by Mary, who goes by the Twitter name of @BottleofWhite and Patch thanks her for taking time to share

The streets are pretty quiet, but there were a bunch of folks eating late lunch at Post Office. It doesn't seem as if too many people had evacuated south of Montauk. We're at Mary Carrols now enjoying a pre-storm beer and we are now the only ones here. I'm guessing people are indoors preparing to ride out the storm.

Feel free to upload your own or email to judy.mottl@patch.com.
