Best Of

We got well over a foot of rain. Folks in our area and to the west of me are in really bad shape. I am hearing horror stories from those South of us.

One of my friends has a couple of crushed cars and a tree in and on the front of his house.

The stories coming from Florida are just so sad to hear about. Communication is dismal and spotty at best.

Cell phone towers are out, we have no power, water, internet (I am at a Lowes parking lot 15 miles away from home typing this) or cable. Thankfully, we do have a generator but we are bored to death.

At least we still ha e our cars and house. Both made it through unscathed.

Mel has always been a complete gentleman in my interactions with him. He even photobombed a birthday party we were at in the past year. I don’t think you can pin those prices entirely on him, as the promoter of the event are trying to make a buck as well.

My sister is reporting out that Indian Rocks beach (between Tampa and Clearwater)
got hit pretty good. Anyone who left a car there, forget it.

Wilmington NC.

Tiny bit of rain and some STRONG wind gusts every once in a while.

Our USA flag was getting old at 8 months old maybe and it got torn to shreds last night and today. We took it down an hour ago. I have 4 spares so a new one will be put back up tomorrow.

20 mins. later...Now it's POURING rain!

We were lucky here. Storm center shifted to the east. No damage on our street. Rain has mostly moved on. Flooded creeks all around us.
