Re: ATL: ETA - Tropical Storm - Discussion
I think we had the band that was closest to the center, but not a landfall, just a brush by.

we still have power and have gotten just under 6" of rain today. We have some pretty serious street flooding going on right now, I was able to go out and get some pictures.
we need these SW winds to die down to let some of this water out of the bay.

Lost power about 30 mins ago in Hernando Beach. Operating off phone now. Winds veering now to the south with 40-50 mph gusts. Tides still about a foot below sea wall but expecting them to rise 3 feet when wind clocks around to SW.

My backyard...live on a canal. Have sand bagged the bottom floor entryways. Hopefully won't get that high as high tide was 30 mins ago. Did get about 6 inches from Hermine.

Moisture from Eta is wrapping around into Georgia and interacting with a frontal system, which is producing some rather heavy showers around Atlanta. I am currently in yet another flash flood warning.

Local weather guy in Tampa Bay area said people are reporting record high water in their yards to knee high and waist high. Said some people are reporting they've not seen this kind of flooding in 30 years!!

Re: ATL: ETA - Tropical Storm - Discussion
First band is bearing down on North Florida but no weather yet. The humidity is off the charts like August after a afternoon of heavy rain. Ridiculous but hopefully the last blast until April.

Is there anyone on here local to the Crystal River area? I have relatives that have a home on the water there and was hoping to find out what the surge is currently looking like on Kings Bay.

Just like Jon Snow..."I know nothing" except what I know, and most of what I know is gathered by the fine people of the NHC
