That storm was heading directly at us for the longest time, so we was rather nervous. But last minute it took a turn for the east and landed south of the Tampa Bay area. We had very moderate rainfall and no winds at all. The people south of us were devastated, so I'd say we really lucked out.Thanks for asking. Everything turned out fine.Chris "For Every Winner, There Are Dozens Of Losers. Odds Are You're One Of Them"

It has slowed to a weak category 3 now, and it is not supposed to directly hit us anyway. We'll probably have some strong winds and heavy rains, but nothing worse. Those poor people in Polk County are going to get hit again it seems.Chris "For Every Winner, There Are Dozens Of Losers. Odds Are You're One Of Them"

This Hurricane completely missed us, but really nailed Alabama all the way down the coast into the panhandle of Florida. Lee Harris is going to have some rough weather in Atlanta too. Thanks for asking. I'm fine. Chris "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." - Nelson Mandella
