Yes, we're all fine and luckly we've had no deaths here in our town. We had the last folks just get power back last night which made it about 5 days w/out power. It's good too as we were to be in the negative degrees last night.
Our town has millions of dollars of damage and will never look the same, but in the big picture, we're lucky that our power crews got out and worked hard to restore everyone, our roofers are working their butts off to get people tarped and covered before the next snow, and everyone survived it.
It's scary driving around seeing all the trees in houses, on top of cars, across power lines, etc.

We really laughed with this storm this week..."we're so prepared for this one....oh, darn, we aren't really prepared." 
Our ski mountain had sustained 130 to 170 mile an hour winds for two hours. They had the pass open for just a window that my DH was able to drive back over and come in the house to watch our glass patio furniture go flying into our wooden fence (which was already down in some places). Good news is that orchards here in town did not sustain much damage...and that's a BIG deal here.
