Ernesto Churns the Sound,
Tosses Trees,
Takes Out Power

(September 7, 2006) Even at the height of the storm,
Larchmont photographers were out
capturing the drama.
When the storm passed,
the sunshine lit up the damage.

A 36-foot sailboat, Westerleigh, was tossed high up on the rocks at Manor Park. Cellphone reception was better in the park than at home, where the landlines were out, reported Donna Coleman, from New Rochelle. At the Larchmont Yacht Club, Ernesto drove the Sound water over the sea wall inundating the beach, docks, lanes and diving board. hoto by Mike Weinstein (left), Judy Silberstein (above) and Kinnan O'Connell, below.
