Downgraded from a 5 down to a 2 due to a small shift near Cuba. Surprise surprise. Some people must feel pretty stupid paying x10 for airtickets and hotel gouging. Great for stocks and government stats though

How did everyone fare?? Bradenton was spared and I actually have electricity!
I am from the Clearwater area (Tampa and Largo) and the assessment is little damage to structures but power and downed lines are an issue. I evacuated to Jacksonville Fl to stay with family there. The storm was quite strong here too but most of the damage is south of Tampa. We are still getting strong gusts but seeing blue sky at times is nice. 5 days of rain here because they had a nor easter storm then high tropical storm winds. Winds here were up to 70 mph.
Glad to hear from Larry that you guys have generator power. Every here made is safe. Might be able to hunt the beach tomorrow???? Would love to see you guys.

We are both safe. I lost the beautiful rain tree in my front yard and a section of my privacy fence but overall the house seems to be okay. US 1 is closed to all traffic Northbound and Southbound from SR 16 to SR 207.
ALL bridges leading to the beaches are closed in St. Augustine and Jacksonville and may not reopen for days and in some cases perhaps weeks! I can't get anywhere near the beaches yet
Much of St. Augustine is flooded and there's massive flooding on Anastasia Island. Keeping an ear to the news for when they reopen the bridges. Hope to see you out there if you're coming this way!

Was doing good until 5am then a tornado smashed my nextdoor neighbor. Knocked down 12 huge oak trees, took the back off of his house and most of his metal roof. Dropped half of the debris on his cars and the rest is in my yard. Then it flattened 4 of my big oaks. We're trapped and can't get out.
Our power went out last night at 11pm came back on at 6pm today and died again after 2 minutes.
Worst of all, I can't get out and swing.
