Any reports from around Brevard county?

Are the bridges closed and does any one have power around Indian Harbour Bch?

Not sure about that... but reporters in Melbourne say power is out in the whole city, so I imagine it's the same deal on the beaches... Storm surge was reportedly up to 10 feet.

My brother and sister-in-law live in Melbourne. He called at 7:30 this morning and told my mother that they did not lose their power.

My daughter lives in Melbourne and she has no power.
I live in Port Saint John and we have power. I heard
there is a sink hole on USI in Melbourne.

One of the Orlando stations has a reporter in Indian Harbour Beach. The damage did not seem to be that severe. The ocean apparently did not breach the dune lines. Some street flooding on the beaches was reported. I spoke to a friend who stayed at a house on a canal between the causeways and he said it was not that bad. He drove through Indialantic and said it looked good. My home still has power in the city of Indialantic and telephone works as well.

Check flatoday.com for updates. They say the causeways are closed.

Wow, memory flashback! I grew up in IHB, glad to hear no huge problems there (I lived there when Mathers Bridge was still made of wood, with a huge crank to open it and the bridgetender would *let us* kids go 'round and 'round to open it up...fishing dates, shrimping, first view most had of a *naked* woman was the painted mermaid on the waterwheel of the fishcamp on the MI end of the bridge - much is gone but the memories are alive and well).

Thanks for the reports! Glad to hear that the ocean did not come over the dunes, since I live 1st floor direct oceanfront.

Shrimping off of Mather's bridge. That does bring back memories.
