Hurricane Florence

Happy Hurricane everyone.

It's sunday night just before midnight & Aunt Flo (hurricane) is visiting.

Hope to report back soon, just about to lose power.

Ciao,

Crazy! I've never been through one. Keep us posted on how it goes!

Well I'm back ~ two days without hydro & one fridge/freezer full of grub gone.

We live on the north side of the rock & when the 'cane arrived from the south it wasn't too bad - just a lot of wind and minimal rain for us.
Then the storm passed to the north side & that's when my place was hit.
*bloop* the power went out around 2pm monday (frying a couple of hydro poles in the process) . needless to say, after several millions calls, we were "back online" this aft (wednesday).

The winds were approx. 80-90 knots & although there was lots of natural disaster (uprooted palm trees), no major structural damage nor injuries/loss of life occurred on the isle.

Here's some pics.
My fave is #20 ~ what a moron.
White-knuckle ride all the way!

Ciao,

Glad to hear you made it through in one piece.

Glad to hear you're well - They must know what they're doing with these hurricanes if nobody was really hurt or anything.

Those pictures are great! The guy on the bike is ridiculous
