Pleased to report no problems encountered by any of our kin folks so far! I know and realize there was some damage but I can't help being amused by the weather channel people sensationalizing this. They saw a tree floating in the surf and a stop sign had been blown down and water even came in on the 1st floor of their hotel, an inch deep!
The way I see it, the various power companies' linemen will be the heroes when they get all the service restored. Some folks have never experienced this sort of outage and can't understand why it takes so long to get their A/C and phone charger up and runnin'.

So far good for all my family.
I still can't tweet or snapchat! Oh that's right, I never could, or would want to.
lost power Friday about noon. Got it back today at 7:30 this eve. Glad I had a generator this time. installed a window A/C got frig, some lights and the TV going. Wasn't to bad. Was very glad to shut it down though. No damage here just a lot of small to medium limbs and a few tons of moss down.Will be very happy to clean that up cuz it could have been a lot worse. Glad I had several water oaks near the house taken down a few months back. Hope nobody has any bad damage and all is OK
All I lost was the internet connection for about 12 hours. 2 trashcans and 3 contractor bags of leaves & branches and we are clean around the house. The lease however is a different story. My members cut their way in yesterday and are out there today cutting their way down all the interior roads. The campsite made it through with no issues thankfully.
