Hurricane hit just to north of us but we had the southern eye wall for hours. This thing took from friday afternoon until today to move completely out of Palm Beach County. A lot of rain and high winds all that time but it really got with the program on Saturday morning then Saturday night was a night from, well you know where, no damage to the house but a lot of jangled nerves. power went off around 11am saturday night and just came back on about 1.5 hours ago. Now we may have to deal with Ivan, hope not. Thanks for your prayers, it helped.

Thankyou all. As slow as it is moving,floods will also be a BIG factor. Any debris
will be a missle. Shingles will slice thru aluminum sheeting. Been there,seen it,
was in Andy, hit by both sides as eye was over out ex home.

Being old is when you didn't loose it, it's that you just can't remember where you put it.
