envirojeff Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 Little damage - lots of water, but the power was out from 1 am on Sat. till yesterday around 6:30pm. Then the phone lines around 9:30pm. Jeff

dib Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 DIB here. Shingles lost, and the tree in my front yard did it's best to uproot itself and the driveway, but it held on. I found out that while treating my shutter gash that I'm allergic to Neosporin, so it's back to alcohol (I put some on my leg too). Dish is back up and hopefully it can stay up ( are you listening Ivan?). I hope to be able to see the Bills this Sunday because that means that Ivan won't bounce us. Hopefully as they say "Third time is a charm". However- I still have my shutters up.
Beerball Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 Welcome back all. Here's hoping that Ivan isn't so terrible.
Surfmeister Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 It went right through Tallahassee like a lamb. We had a little wind with some rain and that was it. I've seen a lot worse with regular rain storms here. I did bring everything on the patio in the house. In short ... BFD !
Like A Mofo Posted September 8, 2004 Posted September 8, 2004 Glad to hear that those on here in Florida are ok...but has anyone heard from stevestojan yet?

I think Ivan is listening (that is to FLA, now the rest of the Gulf, another story): Ivan It is amazing how these beasts seem to follow the narrow path of warm water around the islands. Take care.

Only kidding... Hope he is okay!
BILLS4LIFE Posted September 9, 2004 Posted September 9, 2004 Glad to hear that some of you guys are OK. B)
envirojeff Posted September 9, 2004 Author Posted September 9, 2004 Not looking good guys! http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ftp/graphics/AT09/...IF/090853W5.gif Jeff
frogger Posted September 9, 2004 Posted September 9, 2004 the worse thing about this storm was the wait, and believe it or not I didn't lose power, after being without for a few days after Charlie hit. the power company did a great job in making sure that the lines were stronger, although others were not so lucky. I don't have any trees (after charlie) so i had that going for me, which is nice, so that means nothing could really hit my house. Which is a block house with a rock roof and almost no amount of wind could knock it down. now we wait for Ivan. Frogger (Belle Isle)
envirojeff Posted September 9, 2004 Author Posted September 9, 2004 You suck Fogger! But really - Lucky you. Hats off to all the power guys. Your right about Frances, the waiting was hell. I just hope that this projection is very wrong. Jeff
