Happy thoughts and wishes to y'all in the storm. I grew up on the beaches of Florida, and know first hand what they can do... which is one of the reasons we now live inland Georgia. Back in ought five, we had 3 of them roll over us in a matter of a couple weeks. The second one hit us pretty good, tearing off patches of roofing, the third one sat over us for 3 days and did the pee pee dance. Structurally, the house was fine, just flooded. Then the mold set in. No power, no real food or gas, and there were huge lines when they started passing out bags of ice and jugs of water.
I remember there was one night, after partial power had been restored, I was taking the wife to work. She is a nurse, and drew the after storm shift, the storm shift had been there for 3 days straight. Anyways, there was a gas station open, and we needed gas in the car to get her to work. Some guy saw a pump open, and tried to get in there before anybody else, but we had been waiting in line and got there first. The guy come out of his car in a rage, wanting to fight. If I had more time, I would have gladly obliged him.
Times like that bring the animal out in people, and I am happier living in the woods with the real animals... they are more civilized.
