The 5:00pm track has it coming right over your house 88. Watch out bud. Looking like the south end of the bay and Manatee river is going up 9-10 feet


If you need me down the road, Lanierspots@gmail.com

My cousins in Charleston, SC went through Hugo back in the 90's. Their house was across the street from Charleston Harbor. Their house survived with some damage from a sheet of plywood sticking through their roof right over the bed. They had evacuated. The house across the street was right on the water's edge and their was nothing left of it but the concrete slab it was built on. Tornados are fickled.

Be safe. I got room for you in NC if you are displaced. No cement pond but plenty of lake water to keep you happy.

We are good. List power about an hour ago and cell service is sketchy. We are getting the back side of the eye now and getting our arse kicked pretty good.

While we were in the eye, I looked around outside and didn’t see any issues. Thankfully. Had a lanai video thing going on but darkness killed that.

Sitting here now in the dark listening to all the sounds.


All is well and I hope 88 is OK. We got some serious wind when the eye came in and now we are getting it again. The eye hit shore right down the street.

My parents live right in downtown Sarasota across from the high school.
Luckily they are in Portugal but no idea what they will be coming back to Friday.

I grew up about a mile from where Jim Cantore is posted up in Charlotte Harbor. Looks pretty bad there as well.

I am thankful that you are ok. I have been praying for all members of the Auburn family who are in the path of the storm.

All OK here. No power or cell service at my house but no damage. Boat and business are also OK. Big cleanup today and hopefully get power and cell service soon.

Glad you are ok. My cousin in Tampa lost a big oak tree. Missed the house but took out the pool enclosure, fence, and part of the next door neighbor's pool enclosure.

Took a hit. We had the big winds. about 30-40k in damages. Had wind get up into my attic and blow a side out. We had well over 100+ mile and hour winds. I have a gen running now. No sleep last night. I rigged my internet to work as I have Fiber. Still no power, We were lucky. Haven't been out much. My kid & grandchildren made it through will less damage than us which is nice. Glad we are all alive.

I hate that for y'all. Glad you're okay, sorry the next 6 months will suck. I hope you can get some temp roofing/tarps installed with ease and that your insurance company treats you well.
