AA you might be about to get another one.

Boarding up might not help storm surge but if it keeps a window from blowing out it saves a lot . AA should get the weak side of the storm if the storm goes in the direction it is showing today , so surge should not be a problem . You always do all you can do .

Richard and Craig good luck with this new one coming your way. We have now had over 330 landslides in NC now taking out roads, houses, collapsing into streams and rivers and just making a nuisance of themselves. Tom

At my Dade City house, we installed hurricane impact windows a couple of years ago. Also put on a new roof with peel and stick waterproofing commercial quality metal roof. No risk of flood, the elevation is 247’. I’m cautiously confident we should be ok. We shall see. Tornados are what trashed us during hurricane Irma.

Sounds like you folks in that area just can not get a brake. Last thing south-east need at this point is more wind and rain.

It’s blowing sustained 175 right now. I’m confident it will lay down some before it hits.

I miss West Bradenton and bike rides in Robinson Preserve, and fishing and boating around Palma Sola and Anna Maria Island, motoring out to Rod and Reel from Palma Sola in my CV16. Saw my first friendly dolphin ahead of the CV16 in Palma Sola bay. But my prayers for the area and old neighbors and friends are very different now, and for the months ahead. Hoping for a significant weakening of Milton, and that wisdom and amazing helpful neighborliness prevails.

When you guys down in Florida can, let us know how you are doing. It sounds like many are without power. Tom

We were out of power and running water for four days with Helene, it's going to be a long while for some folks.

Talked with Reid 8:45aET Oct 11. Everyone is well. Shop avoided catastrophy. There will be general clean up for a while, but they hope to be able to support everyone very soon.
