Quote:Just saw on the news that the Jax Pier is being ripped apart again.
Yep. The end of the pier has been washed away.
So far my satellite has blanked out and my power has quickly flickered a couple of times each. My viburnum hedge is waving majestically in the breeze. This is the most boring, historic, major, child-killing hurricane EVER.

I swear our pier is held together with bubblegum and paper clips.

Right around when you mentioned this, I posted similar information. It wouldn't surprise me if a 90 mph wind gust or greater hit the pier.
