OT Hurricane Jeanne - here we go AGAIN!
It looks like we are going to be hit by the 4th hurricane of the season. The
forecasters are still undecided as to exactly where it's going to land in Florida but we are already feeling some of the wind gusts and the rain. I'm hunkered down and ready. Fellow Floridians, be safe! Linda2 -- "In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." - Martin Luther King Jr. |

I'm about 100 north of you in St. Lucie County, right where they expect
landfall again! But we're as ready as we can be. We had just taken our shutters off last Saturday when the storm turned away from us. Figures! This is it. One more storm and I'm moving to Arizona! LOL! But I'm taking my palm trees with me! Please be safe Linda! Dawn "Linda2" wrote in message ink.net... It looks like we are going to be hit by the 4th hurricane of the season.

Yup - we're on the frontend of this one, for a change, so we're in for a
very wet Sunday. Stay safe, ya'll. B. "Linda2" wrote in message ink.net... It looks like we are going to be hit by the 4th hurricane of the season.

I made it through a night of howling wind and heavy rain without losing
power this time. Last time, I had no power for six days, this time I Iucked out. I took a quick drive to the local convenience store this morning. Not much damage, a few newly-planted trees down. Power seems to be on locally. Heavy dark clouds still hanging overhead, although the hurricane warning has been lifted for Broward county. Some gusty winds and sheeting rain every now and then. The Middle River, two block from my home, has risen above the seawall and is now lapping at lawns bordering it. The Muscovy ducks are waddling all over, feasting on whatever bugs and worms have come above ground to escape the water. I'm restraining myself from going to the beach to check for treasures washed ashore. Yesterday morning, the waves were coming clear up to the seawall. I'm not looking forward to seeing how badly this storm has continued the beach erosion. Jeanne is now headed for the west coast. I'm hoping all Florida beaders will check in and let us know how they've fared through yet another hurricane.

I'm glad you are okay. Next time though I'm coming to sit it out with you
with metal detectors in hand. One for you and one for me. Then we can detect to our heart's delight. -- Starlia Klopman www.klopmanstudios.com "Linda2" wrote in message k.net...

I know that the Daytona area is getting hit as I type. My brother just
called my mom. They just lost power, have not cable, phone lines are still up tho. As my niece was talking to Mom she screamed. She thought another tree fell on the house (happened the last time, minimal damage). Apparently they lost an 8' section of the roofing shingles. Not the roof itself tho. Thank heavens! They're going to call again about 2 EST if they can for further updates. They figure tha's about the time the worst will be over with. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Tinkster" wrote in message ...
