    Florida, how's it going? Georgia?

    Steve, how's it been? My brother in JAX says it's been light. Some heavy rains here and there and plenty of wind all day but not horrible. Hasn't lost power, but he ain't not getting the ball games......cable is out. Georgia you are next. Good luck.

    Texted "Steve 0080" this morning.
    Power was out, a few downed trees, nothing epic in Sanford.
    Gave him a hobby with his chainsaw this afternoon.
    Probably saving his batteries until power comes back.

    Cheers,
    Steve

    Should be pretty much /thread here... with the caliber and fabric of our brethren down there.

    Steve is probably bench pressing the same amount of force; that the surf is exuding on the mainland.

    Very good. During Ike we were without for 11 days. Ike found so many weaknesses in the electrical infrastructure in S TEXAS that had been ignored for many years. Hope it isn't too humid this evening while they recover.

    Not too bad here, decided to ride it out. I'm just 20 miles north of Melbourne and aprx 15-20 inland from the coast, it was a little scary even though the eye stayed off the coast and was downgraded to a cat 3. Mostly had some shingle and fence damage with expected yard debris, lost power for several hours and was restored yesterday afternoon.

    It was not bad West of Orlando. Barely any wind and absolutely no Flooding. The main problem was gas and drunk people. My power never even flashed.
