    White Plains Devastation

    By aherman00  |  Posted October 31, 2012  |  White Plains, New York
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     iReporter aherman00 took a walk around his neighborhood of White Plains, New York, on Tuesday afternoon to capture the devastation following Superstorm Sandy. "Trees are down and most of the power is still off, while many of the shops are still closed," he says. "We have a newborn baby and were supposed to have a doctors appointment but it was canceled because they do not have power. Changing diapers with a flashlight is an interesting experience." However, he says he has been heartened by his community coming together to help others, from offering equipment to opening up their homes to people in distress.
    - sarahbrowngb, CNN iReport producer

    Sandy left a mess for residents of White Plains with trees down and property damage it is going to be a number of days until power is fully restored and a full evaluation can be made. Trees around White Plains were ripped from their roots creating a dangerous and devastating situation for residents of White Plains.
