    @Herr Durr
    Very happy to hear that you are safe and doing well.
    Be very careful because we need you in one piece here: what would be this community without you?

    By the way, on which island are you located?

  6. Hope all is well! Just got off the phone with my brother in Sarasota which luckily didn't get hit as badly as it might have. No electricity and they aren't even drinking their water from their decent filter. Looks like three to seven days without power but their house is none the worse for wear except holes in the outside walls where he screwed in the plywood scavenged from a construction site which waitng around waiting to become projectiles during the peak of the storm as it passed through.

    Hang in there, the next bit of time might be a trying a trying time for many. I guess it is officially acoustic guitar and bassoon week for many that haven't a backup generator. Namaste and blessings!

    @mrpsanter I'm actually in Floriduh with @subGENRE, has he been posting last 24 hrs? millions of people here are without power...
    but mine just came back on... thanks God... I thought all my yummy Mayport shrimp would have to be out of the freezer and
    barbied tonite... :winker:

    @superliquidsunshine indeed.. that's all I had for almost 18 hrs...my acoustics and a battery radio
    little damage to my domicile.. nothing major..neighbor's wooden privacy fence snapped at a post and fell over tho... winds were indeed the highest I have seen since all the 'canes past. Best to your bro man... hope his power comes back soon.. aside from the storm.. that's the biggest pain.. no a/c in Florida? sacre bleu ! and then all your frige food slowly or quickly becoming unusable...
    I am damn lucky !

    best to all who are recovering... :wink:

    @DarthFader thanks for greets and sage advices .. I know my shrimps pale in comparison to what others have lost...
    I am thankful I am too poor to afford anything near the water in Florida... they take the brunt... best to them as well

    @electriclash when the winds howl you definitely gain a refreshed perspective on the power of nature.. and how insignificant we are within it... when it is coming for you, nothing will get in the way.... certain areas that are higher up in elevation often come out better in these events... again, I feel very lucky... the other people in the vicinity were as well.. thanks for the well wishes..:wink:

    Good to hear everything went well for you man.

    People don't always realize how much of a MFKR the ocean can be.

    I remember when I was a kid now would be about the time we would all try to be sneaking back onto the closed beaches to get some surf before the waves drop back down. Silver linings for some people, other people just scary water.

    The title is click bait, I watched this with envy a few times, nobody gets messed up. One guy gets sucked through the barrel and looses his board cause he has no leash on it, but that's about the worst thing that happens.

    2 Weeks ago i was in Italy.
    A massive storm destroyed almost all mobile homes.
    6 people were killed
    The nature showed how small we are.
    Good luck to anyone. Safe the planet.

    too true...

    the rivers and creeks inland connected to it.. get water pushed into them from the ocean as well..
    so effects can be well away from the coast..., there were literally waves coming from the river over land that never has water on it..

    @famouslut fortunately for everyone .. I don't have a bassoon to torture the neighbors with... but it's a smashing idea...
    from you know who.. :yes:

    this was a park by the river before the storm...

    Yhea, grew up in Virginia Beach on the bay, I've lived through quite a few of them.

    We even had to live in a Hotel for a bit over a month while the lower floor of the house had to be striped, dried out and redone. Dad always had flood insurance, I have flood insurance and the most dangerous bodies of water near me the Schuylkill and the Perkiomen are so damned up they are now more or less drainage ditches. Too many people focus on the wind, bu its the water and the mud that truly fuck shit up.

    Grew up close enough to the water to have a developed a certain sense of objectivity about storms, get insurance, maintain a generator, and it gets iffy just leave. If shit gets broken, stolen, or w/e that why you have the insurance. Never had any issues (except once) with claims, its the poor dudes and dudettes, that are not insured, under-insured or can't afford insurance that always get it in the poopoo.
