Thanks, you as well. Both the Gulf and the Atlantic are quite active right now.

New Smyrna Beach is getting hit by both of these storms! My boss at Starbucks wants us to be open tomorrow. My store is 30 miles east of Orlando. Who would be out driving in that mess to get coffee? You all on the Gulf Coast, check in and let us all know your ok! Zimmeh

So far so good here, Clay, though I wait with bated breath to see what the next three days bring about. The ground is quite soggy with large puddles on many of the streets as it is. I'm not sure we can handle another 7"-10" of rain on top of this without the streets buckling once again. There is also talk of a 3+ foot storm surge dependent upon the tides at the time of landfall, I'm only ten foot above sea level as it is. Lol!
Anywho, Clay you have my number, anyone else in the area who would like to stay in touch just hit me up via pm to exchange digits. I know there are more of us in the impact zones...Lady Snow & weatherboi for example. I hope you are safe and buckled in. Be well! Jesse Quote:

Hurricane Hermine Go Home!
How is everyone holding up?
We have torrential rain here, winds steady at 28 mph with gusts up to 40-45mph, some local flooding and tornado warnings are out. It sounds much worse than it really is. I think my area has dodged the bullet so to speak, unless we get smacked with a tornado from out of left field. North of us, Tallahassee & Apalachicola, is where Hurricane Hermine's landfall is expected sometime between midnight and 2 am. Meanwhile, the blustery gal sits just offshore battering the shoreline and kicking up the storm surge which is already tearing up nearby roads.

There was an unconfirmed tornado touvh down in Edgewater, Florida. That is less than five miles from my house. I am safe, but I hope the residents of Edgewater is safe!
You all be safe! Zimmeh Quote:

Has anyone heard from Snow and weatherboi, or any of the other Florida folks affected by these storms?

Another of the long line of bands with squalls & winds of 50 mph & heavy rains with potential for tornadoes is coming in here now.
The sky is just getting some light to it....will be watching local news teams coverage to see just how much water & wind damages from tornadoes overnight! Stay safe & check in Fla peeps!

Still no word from my 16 year old niece, her mom and step family. They live in Panama City! One worried Aunt here! New Smyrna is starting to dry up and the sun is shining. Hope everyone in North Florida, Georgia and The Carolinas are safe!

I hope you hear from your family soon, Zimmeh and that all is well with them.
It was a rough and tumble night here. Once Hermine came ashore all hell broke out here with bad storms, wind and nonstop rain. So I stayed awake all night to be on the lookout for tornado sightings in the area so we could take better cover if needed. Then when the sun rose, everything just sort of stopped, other than nonstop drizzle and a few rumblings. So now, I am going to attempt to sleep. I hope everyone is safe and remains that way. Jesse

Hope you all are staying safe. I have a couple of friends that live in Florida and they have checked in and continue to do so every so many hours. I have been watching it on the news, the storm surge is unbelievable.
Stay safe and keep checking in, you are in my thoughts. |

Reports are finally coming in locally of the damage Hermine left in her wake. Just half a mile down the road from me parts of the main drag are so flooded it is undrivable. Several cars are upside down in flooded ditches. Many neighborhoods in my area that are 'not in a flood zone' are reporting waist high water. Trees through roofs, or crashed down on cars, etc. Many remain without electricity and it may be several days before it is restored. There is damage from at least one 'suspected' tornado as well. I heard about a trailer park somewhere nearby that was pretty devastated by a 'suspected tornado'.
The good news is that even though close to 40 people had to be rescued from their homes, (possibly more since I last listened to the reports) I know of only one death and I am not totally sure it was storm related. In the end, it is the safety and well being of people and animals that truly matters.

Good morning Florida!
For my area, we are all clear insofar as "storm stuff" goes weatherwise. It is the Tampa Bay area & areas more along the coast that endured the brunt of it. As Jesse said, I saw Police cars upside down in water on roads, as they were trying to reach emergency calls. I saw that trailer park, too Jesse. It was in Taylor County....near Cedar Key & Steinhatchee. I wonder what this storm did to the up scallop population.... In Clearwater the storm surge last evening was really high from the back end of the hurricane. The sewer systems were already spewing sewage before this storm hit...the Skyway Bridge was close all day yesterday...hopefully back open today if winds have left area. Anyway, we made it through & October isn't even here yet....thank you to everyone who checked in on me & I appreciate you all.
