It was the other side of Florida, maybe 200-300? I don't know, would
have to do googling.
Tornado watches and warnings going off all over, someone said there was
one on this Island but I don't know where exactly.
No rain or wind right now, I am going out on the bike to get some pics
of things.

Rain and wind were pretty strong (not hurricane, but blowing and
gusty) but now none of either.
Tidal surge has caused a LOT of flooding, I have water from the
marsh way up higher than I have seen it before, was right at the
edge of my garage but not in it when I last checked. I understand
the roads to Kiawah and Seabrook are flooded over, and friends
over there report quite high water from the tidal surge (which has
not been THAT bad).
All in all not too bad here, considering, relatively.

Hi Gerry,
Sounds like you made it through OK so far.
We're finally getting a little wind and rain, 20 mph with
gusts over 30.
Had a couple tornado watches in the last hour but nothing
materialized.

We are into the tornado segment around here in West Citrus
County with the
winds going every which way and some still quite forceful.
I wandered around the neighborhood and found no damage
other than a lot of
light debris from the trees of which we have too many.
Speaking of trees, of which I have "way" too many, one
fell on the roof of
my house so I may be the only one on the list which has
reportable
hurricane damage. As soon as the drizzle lets up, I'll
take some pictures
and send them to the group.
If you have to have a tree fall on your house, this is the
way to do it.
It landed on its branches on the garage section of the
house roof and there
doesn't appear to be any damage to the roof unless some
rafters might have
been broken. It's now resting on the branches which are
resting on the
garage roof. The trunk is about 8-10" in diameter.
More later.
Gerry
