It's shifted east some...that's a good thing as far as the storm surge goes, at least for us along the river. Knock on wood that it stays that way!!
5:15 AM still sliding a bit offshore from the earlier predictions. Here in Sanford the winds are still under 20mph at this point.
It's also down to a cat 3 earlier than expected. Hopefully that continues.
How far away is Crescent Beach? A half hour ago they reported winds there at 63 mph.
...and about 15 before that, Vilano Beach reported 74 mph winds.

Well, the boards need to be replaced anyway.
Watching coverage of this thing one would think that they are hoping for the catastrophic damage they keep predicting. They are instilling fear in those who are not used to such events. We have had Northeasters that will easily match this thing in intensity.
Still got power in Putnam but it's picking up now
I happened to be reading this thread.....and Bam...power goes out.
