We seem to have gotten by okay. We actually had the worst winds during the middle of the night last night (Sunday) and still going pretty strong now. We were very fortunate and never lost power which is amazing.

Just saw on the news that up at the "bayfront" by Marina Jacks, where all the sailbotes anchor out, is literally strewn with boats, sail and power. The newscaster reporting with the video said she could count at least 20 or more boats up on the beach/rocks and probably ten more that have sunk at their moorings. Nearby residents reported that as of dark last night, only two had beached themselves, the rest all happened overnight.

Seas are now reported at 7 to 12 feet.

And now "Ivan" is churning it's way towards us. It's following "Charlies" footsteps. Coming right at us. Supposed to be "wherever" by next weekend. Talk about living at the end of a bowling alley.

We are back in East Orlando, tornado watches NOW with the outer bands going through....The next one, Ivan, is a Cat. 4 already, looks like a buzz saw. If we are on the roads we feel like we are breaking the law. Limbs are down, screen torn, that's all. No booze purchases in Seminole County after
9 p m.....I hear thunder!!! :eek: 12:32 Monday

He's at the river :(

It's raining again.
Lowe's is open!

Re: Latest Hurricane?
 

Finally the rain has stopped here, but there is mass flooding in the Tampa Bay area and the outlying communities. Several retention ponds have given, and they are showing footage of folks jet-skiing down Bayshore Blvd.

The people in Haiti need to start doing the dam rain dance NOW, because I really don't want to deal with Ivan next weekend.....

Ut-oh.... does that mean Daytona Beach has become a river?....... :eek:

Re: Latest Hurricane?
 

Got power back now. I thought I had it all figured out prior to yesterday. Charged the battery for the laptop but didn't count on losing cable and phone. Time to buy a new laptop and cell phone with bluetooth capabilities now!

At least my 400 watt power inverter will run the home theater system. I ran an extension chord to the truck last night to watch a movie.

BTW, trying to kill the boredom, prior to losing power I was almost able to review the whole wives and girlfriends thread.

Re: Latest Hurricane?
 

Altamont Springs storm gone..60% chance thunder storms......Power still out..

Daytona Beach hit very hard. Volusia County is all the news. Very little for other counties..

Lottsa attention now directed to IVAN..expected in 5-7 days.

I hope evertone is ok..

Re: Latest Hurricane?
 

I think Frances got Cuda... he's been MIA since the storm.... :eek:

Re: Latest Hurricane?
 

We're feeling the effects of the storm now. 35-40 mph winds and flood warnings. The power is out all around town and we're in North Georgia! BH
