If I live in Jupiter and I have bedroom windows facing both east and west, before the eye passes which side of the house will get the most wind. I suppose this does a 180 after the eye passes. Thanks in advance.

East side first, west side later.

[x-y-no]

Kicking up to strong TS sustained now.

Another 10 knots and this will be worse than the strongest winds we got from Katrina here.

[x-y-no]

Wow ... just saw somebody driving by outside.

There are some fools out there ...

[Derek Ortt]

my office building is starting to shake

about 2 hours until the eye wall

Wow ... just saw somebody driving by outside.

There are some fools out there ...

Maybe they didn't heat about the Hurricane and they are headed to work

[sprink52]

Estimate TS force with gust here in Royal Palm Beach...still have power.

[x-y-no]

Getting frequent power spikes ... we'll see how much longer I can stay online.

[AZRainman]

Power out in Hialeah, FL

[Weatherboy1]

power starting to flicker at my house here in Jupiter and the winds/rain are really picking up. Radar shows the strongest bands are going to be here very soon (next half hour). This will probably be it for my posting here. Everone stay safe. I'll be back on when I can.

[Scorpion]

Power is flickering. Don't know how much longer I can stay on.

[T'Bonz]

Starting to get nasty here in Coral Springs, power will be out soon.

I'm in C.S. too.

I woke up hearing the winds at 6:30.

Damn storm is wrecking my favorite tree, which has survived all the rest of the 'canes.

Bah.

[x-y-no]

Amazed I still have power - have had multiple 10 to 20 second outages, but it keeps coming back on.

[x-y-no]

Wow ... big gust ... tree in the parking lot which got through Katrina just fine literally blew apart into pieces.

Buildings next door losing roof tiles. Thankfully, this building is a fortress.

Power keeps coming back on - thought for sure it was out for the long term this time.

[x-y-no]

OK, looks like the power is out for good this time. Going to shut down some servers. I may have half an hour to an hour of backup time before I'm offline completely.
