Thinking of all you guys in Florida. Hope you guys make it through this unscathed. I'm in north Georgia so hopefully we shouldn't get too much here but they are still calling for 50-60mph gusts. Prepped the boat today and hope the docks hold up. I think the lift will help a lot because it moves up and down with the waves.

We knew you were quite confident going into the storm when your prep included opening the garage door.

how is everyone holding up ?

 

[ClemsonTiger]

Some broken tree branches, front porch light fixture broke apart, lost power twice but for less than 30 seconds each time.

Nothing major. We are on the same power grid as the Jupiter firehouse so we tend to not lose power and if so, not for extended periods of time.

My sister in law and her boyfriend Sherriff say they are holding on tight! Still on Lockdown!
They are in Palm Harbour, FL
Right by lake Tarpon

 

[Speedling]

Supposed to swamp Tampa with UP TO 8' of a storm surge wave, AND 20" of rain possible. Think of a 5-8' wave coming at your house. And yes, that is supposedly the above ground level height. Gosh, and my Sister in law JUST moved down there last month. WELCOME TO FLORIDA!
She sent me this:

Praying for you guys in Fl. My In-laws finally decided to leave their home in Cape Coral yesterday. They just retired and moved down from NJ August 25! So they did not want to go. They told us, "We'll be fine, we won't flood we're on the canal" So my wife asked, what happens when the roof comes off? 2 hours later they said "OK, we'll leave".
