I spoke with a friend of mine in SC. He said they are going to get 10-12 inches of rain.

Just south of Tampa they got over 14” of rain, plus storm surge.

Amazing. If NautiNurse had posted this article it would have had 800 comments by now. The rest of us, not so much. Talk about the Guild System during the Renaissance.

The problem with this one is its a slow or no movement storm.

While 80 mph winds are plenty, this is going to be more about flooding than anything else.

My daughter, her husband, and his parents flew down to Jacksonville on Saturday. They have a vacation house on the beach. Great timing, eh? She’s been sending us short videos of the wind. You can easily see the waves breaking about 100 feet from where they are. I hope it doesn’t get any worse for them.

As if that’s not enough, our other daughter’s Godparents, retired, are moving back to Northern Illinois and selling their house in the Villages. They already bought a house here and went back to put their place on the market. There they sit presently.

SO, I have the Fox Weather Channel on and I’m keeping tabs on their situations. Hopefully the worst parts of the storm will pass North of them all.

They’ll find some way to blame this on DeSantis.

I’m about 60 miles south of Tampa.

We’ve had about 36 hours of heavy rain.

It’s been blowing towards the front of my house. My bedroom carpet by the front window is wet because the rain dripped in somehow.
