Hurricane charlie

the hunter · 08-12-2004, 09:03 PM

I was just talking to some friends that are getting ready for the hurricane, and started wondering how many here are in line with it?

I am a long way from there but we would gladly take the rain.

It was 114 here this week!

Bonnie effects due here tomorrow. Charlie is a biggun' and glad tht it's path drifts out to sea as it heads northward.

Hurricane season has arrived and I hear Fl Keyes is under evacuation. How are ya SE folks doing?

Bad news it looks like its going to hit Janet head on.

Thats not good hopefully she is taking cover!

the hunter · 08-13-2004, 10:19 AM

She has taped up her windows, and stocked up on supplies, but she is staying put. Im really worried, as not many people know how bad this can be. I do know, as we were hammered by jaun last year, and although this is a small province, we had over 100 million dollars in damage.

I just heard back from her, and she was very lucky, it didnt hit there too bad, but I guess some areas are a real mess.

I hear Sannibel got hit pretty good. So I'm guessing a fav escape to Captiva wouldn't be good to book right now..

Glad to hear folks weathered the storm ok

Well...

I live near Orlando during the summer... yeah. My house wasn't damaged, but is still without power or clean water. Thankfully I'm back at Gainesville for the year, but my Mom gets to live there 'till the power's back and water main's are fixed.

I've got some impressive pictures of the destruction I'm going to be posting in a bit

Here's a few. Notice how light it is, we were able to keep the back door open the entire storm and watch it from the back porch. It never blew from that direction.
