Take care...Hopefully this one isn't that bad. I hear that TS Fay is intensifying overland. All other things can wait. Ride this one out Hannah...

Well, right now Fay is closing in on our particular town of Okeechobee... and the Lake. It's coming fast and strong, half of the county is out of power. Here at the house we are getting alot of brown outs... nothing severe yet.. but the way the storm is intensifying.. we may be out of power soon. We are lucky here that we have the hurricane windows YAY! But it looks bad outside, there are trees and powerlines and stuff everywhere! I will keep you updated!

Batten down the hatches, the weather channel said wind gusts around the lake were over 80 mph. Storm warnings all the way up to my old stomping grounds at Flagler Beach.

Vic,
I was just there Sunday. We go to Flagler Beach every weekend we're in San Mateo, it's our home beach. I love the drive along the ocean shore, you can't get that anywhere but Flagler. Let's pray the storm doesn't take anymore of the beach!

Ok. I pulled my head out of my hole and see that the storm is coming from the west. Flagler Beach is safe.

Ok we made it through the storm... WOW? It hung out over us like Frances did! No damage just alot of wind and rain!

[madjim- with the Lord]

GOOD NEWS! I hope our place in San Mateo is okay, we'll see next weekend, I'm sure it's allright.

A question for you about your problem not seeing Hoster, have you changed your screen resolution recently or worked with your video card?

Now the Fla panhandle and southern GA residents will have to worry.....If the storm goes back over the gulf watch out Alabama too!

Here in Valdosta GA the skies are dark and restless. No rain yet today so I think it's the calm before the storm. We'll see!

I'm in Okeechobee right above the Lake. It's 8:30 pm and this storm is still hovering over us, BIG wind gusts, dog's freakin out.. son is bored. Still have power though! Maybe I'll hop in bed and eat some crackers and Vienna sausages and watch some Tele. Nothin' good on tonight!
