I'm hoping to go down to the water front and get some in the thick of it but the wifey is saying she is going to put the kibosh on those plans. We'll see.

I've decided to stay at my house tonight...but I will absolutely take pictures if the eye passes over me...which at this point (depending on how big the eye is) it probably will.

Still have power?
8/26/2011 5:47:29 PM
Yeah. Been alternating between periods of downpour and light rain. Winds haven't kicked up much more than a normal thunderstorm (so, maybe 35mph?)

Post when it goes out.
8/26/2011 10:26:49 PM

Today, we are all firewall.

Power returned at 2am. So, no power for 22 hrs during a pretty serious hurricane is damn good in my book. Good on ya CCEC.
