Not looking good for us in Florida

[JckDanls 07]

After some drinks/moonshine yesterday... We went for a ride in golf cart in middle of storm... Wasn't good.. trees and wires down everywhere...

If you're riding it out stay safe !
If you're on the road there are many scions along I-16 W from Savanah that are out of gas until later today. If you're up this way and need something let me know !

All good here. Avoided the worst. About 15” of rain. Before and after of the pond behind our house.

Has anyone heard from Al? Worried as Sebring had a direct hit and was still strong then. Sent him a PM with my cell number, but not sure when he will be able to see it.

Yes, it's time for a roll call...

We all know that for many it could take several days before even temporary cell towers are brought in, not to mention power and other services.

Living on a generator. Lost a lot of green stuff in the yard a bit of fence and some of our lanai screen. Finally able to get to our business. They're going down to check it now. We think it flooded but we don't know yet. Lots of damage here especially North of us. My son had a couple bodies floating in the canal by his house.
Glad we made it. Our total sympathies to those who live North of us. This was a major storm event.

I expect folks have more to do right now than checking in. We'll just have to wait and hope for the best....

No power, no phone, no internet,

First time using the cell phone to access SMF... Sorry about double pics

I know it might be awhile before we hear from Al but they are definitely in my thoughts and prayers. Glad to see some have checked in stay safe

So sad...Heard the sheriff of Fort Myers say he expects the deaths to be in the hundreds....

Spent vacation there years back . I can't even imagine what it was like for them . Just not much to it . It rained hard when we were there and it took 2 days for the water to drain off the streets . I feel for them .
