    Somehow I don't think that's going to be the last we hear of things like this. Sadly...when people decide to ride it out it's the first responders who are just at risk.

    I believe they said we could drive 10-15 mph in 30-40. Fuck that shit. We have a big wall we are driving Down the road.

    Well thankful she weakened. She has us saying, "that's it?" May be headed to Naples where a lot of damage is done

    Minimal damage at my mom's place in Port Orange. Branches down, lost a section of fence. Wind is still howling. Looks like I won't be able to head down to check out my place until this evening. I may just wait until tomorrow morning.

    Too poor to list anything interesting.
    I don't know what made him think he'd be able to leave right after it hit. I'd come to expect being stuck out there for 2 weeks.

    I'm actually surprised the towers are still working out there. What's their rating in regard to storm resistance?

    I still don't see where the surge was 30/35 feet in Key West as was reported maybe it was well off shore at buoy readings?

    There was reports of storm surge of 30/35 feet I just don't think it was in Key West.....

    I have seen some pics so far that clearly shows possible 12/18 feet in the upper Keys....

    Remember, when you're in a hurricane, SMS texting is the way to go. Your message will eventually get out.
