We Made It

Shannon here:

Looks like we made it thru OK. No major damage, even the electricity stayed on the whole time. Quick inspection shows minor branches and palm fronds all over the place. Houses and RV's are fine.

Not satisfied by the non stop coverage of Hurricane Irma, our own weather inspector stepped outside to assess the situation.

Glad you made it all ok and feel great that your power stayed on as you all must be living right.
Here in Texas we lost power for 5 hours BUT the city lost it's water plant on account of flooding as we had Harvey dump tons of rain on us and sat on us for many days.
Shut down I-10 for days and all other coming in and out.
Areas still has standing water.
Many houses flooded and streets lined with what was inside the houses with mold.

Prayers answered for sure, Glad you are all ok there.

Good to hear you're OK. Are you saying that when Irma took one look at the fearsome inspector, she moved quickly on? Hope to hear from other Florida blog readers and that they made it through OK.

Wonderful news, and without losing power. It`s raining and breezy here in Columbia, SC this morning, but we`re suppose to get 4"-6" of rain and wind gust up to 55 mph this afternoon. Praying that all my other Florida friends came out OK.

Glad too know you folks came through it OK, Even the inspector looks to be in good shape.

Best news I could hope to hear. Thinking of Monica and young Johnny and bears who were right in her path. Peace

Glad to hear that you are OK. The Weather Channel made it seem like Tampa Bay was going to reclaim all of West Florida.
