Update: BamaJenny is still hanging in there. Bay County (Panama City/ Panama City Beach) is very battered and bruised, but still kicking. Beach has a lot of erosion, and we had some severe tornados when the feeder bands first started to come on shore - starting about 4:00/4:30 Wednesday afternoon, going until close to midnight. Because of the tornados, Ivan's first fatality in the US was in Bay County. Actually the first two fatalities.
Personally, house, husband, dogs, me, are all okay. We did have some tree limbs in the yard, but nothing that fell on the house. Lost power from about 11:45 PM Wednesday night until about 6:00 Thursday afternoon. When we got cable back (about 9:00 last night) that was everything at the house. Still have no phones at work, but I do have internet (go figure). And since I have my cable, I have my ESPN GamePlan, which is showing that they will have Bama on Saturday. Technically, I think the eye went ashore in Gulf Shores. But Ivan pounded the gulf coast from Panama City, past Mobile, into Mississippi. It will be quite a while before Bay County is back to normal, but not nearly as long as it will be for Pensacola/Gulf Shores. They were just devastated. Basically, you can't get to Pensacola. I10 and Hwy 98 are both closed, and it will be weeks (for Hwy 98) to months (I10) before they are open again. There is severe flooding and massive damage. We can only thank God that there were not a lot more people killed.
