Not much. A soft hit on the edge of the roof, not too bad and
easy to fix and a tree that took out the power line at the house
end. Just pulled it right out of the connection and broke the
strain relief. Now to wait for Clay electric to come and hook it
back up. probably some time next month since I'm probably on the
end of the list especially with no way to tell them that the line
is disconnected.

I was wondering about you, Manfred. No damage on your place?

Looks like so far you have the worst damage of all the people on
the list down here. Hope it's as light as it looks.

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.

We've only seen one other house in our neighborhood that has boarded up.
They boarded up a couple days ago, and it looked like they took some down
yesterday.

I rode my bike over to the beach this morning to check out the action,
tide is up but not a lot of churning at this point. Went back over just
a
little while ago at high tide to see what was going on, it is probably
about 2ft higher than usual, though today and tomorrow are high
astronomical tides. Winds tomorrow will be onshore at 44-47 at high tide
time, so there will likely be more of a surge than now. Met a family
there
from Tampa who had bailed out and were staying here, Bubba had his bass
boat behind his bigass truck, so I am comforted that the Redneck Navy has
arrived! But got me thinking about everyone else down that way and
hoping
y'all stay safe.
I think we will be OK, certainly better than the models were suggesting 3
days ago when they were showing landfall basically right over my vast
estate. We'll get some wind and rain and a bit of flooding but we should
be fine. I did board up the house and garage, so that was a chore, and
have a few things to move around and tie down. Power company is not
going
to shut power off like last October, so unless a limb or tree takes down
my
wires I will have lights and refrigeration. Generator is waiting though,
so ready for any eventuality.
Y'all stay dry and safe!
