Hey Jolly
-
Bring munchies and water into the cellar.
Ain't many cellars around here. Water table is too high.
The problem will be after the storm comes through, and the heat and humidity zoom back. Hopefully, the generator runs fine and powers my little 6000 btu window unit. If you can sleep cool and keep the freezers from thawing, it's all hunky-dory.
Feel sorry for the guys down south. Coast Guard just told folks down there to make sure they had tools to hack out of their attics.

Yeah, we didn’t have them in Florida either for the same reason. Heck, you couldn’t drain a pool because the water would push it up out of the ground.
I remember bugging out (down?) to the cellar in Ohio when there were tornado warnings.
You were warned.

Just powered up the generator. Surprised I have the net.
Wasn't bad up here...only about a half-inch of rain. Mostly wind, had a few gusts close to 90. Junior high that's about a 400 yards away through the woods from me, lost part of their roof, but that's the worst damage right close to me. Mostly, we have trees down in the community...I just have some big oak limbs scattered about.
The "experts" missed the storm surge by half. The wind, they got right.

I'd say you came through very well this time, Jolly. Good news to hear.

Fun fact - Ernest Hemingway (the writer) his house in Florida is one of the few with a basement (along with the 6 toe herd of cats).
@Jolly Glad that you are okay!!!
