Re: [gatortalk] Gainesville 3am update

My wife and home are safe.  A lot of debris to clean up.  Thankful that the dry air stream broke up the backside of the storm so the damage was a lot less than originally thought for Central and North Florida.  I would assume that Gainesville took a hit but probably not bad enough to cancel the ball game next week?

In Maitland we lost power at 7:00.  I have the generator up and running now.  Several large oaks are down in the neighborhood, one in my backyard.  Will need a new roof, shingles are all over the lawn.

 

No idea what kind of wind we had here, my rock blew away :). It did last a lot longer than I expected though from about 10-3.  We are still under a tropical storm warning, but just getting occasional gusts.

 

All in all, I am very thankful.  When I look at the damage in the islands, I know how lucky I am that this storm weakened considerably before it hit.  Now it's time for the cleanup!

About 15k without power. Reports say many trees are down. Hurricane is 

still a few hours south of us and although it's now a cat 1 it's still 

supposed to bring 75mph gusts. Pretty noisy outside wind is probably 35-40 

right now.
