ft laud holding up okay. luckily with the slight north jog frances did today, along with the mostly westward motion, spared us from the main eye wall band on the south. It looked for a while like we were going to get that south eye wall, but its still very breezy and rainy, quite a few down trees, 200,000+ without power, but still consider ourselves very lucky. We've managed to avoid the direct wrath of both Andrew and Frances. Whew.

It's OK here. Transformers going and trees falling and good winds, but OK.

Helluva storm!

I'd love to know what were the highest winds we got here in Coral Springs.

But it's late and winds or no winds, I think I'll sleep. *grin*
