Last I heard yesterday, there was a prediction Dennis would stall over the MS/OH valley for up to three days with potential for serious flooding.
Are you ready for the EMILY threads?
They had come back and were getting healthy, but thier shallow root systems combined with saturated ground from Cindy brought them down again. Don't know if we can save them a second time.
Talked to my brother in Ft. Walton Beach. He has an Oak tree laying across his brand new roof (Ivan damage just got repaired 2 months ago). He said they never lost power in Northern FWB. Took a ride, lots of signs blown down, some roof damage, lots of trees down. HWY 98 was breached on Okaloosa Island again, and as of last night they were not letting anyone on the island so he isn't sure what the waterfront looks like. he said FWB has a good amount of damage, but nothing like with Ivan.
Kid's in Foley did just fine. Lost one tree and power for a short time. Now we are in that stall pattern in Memphis. Started raining and winds sometime in the night and is supposed to rain forever. So what is new in the South.??????
I'm betting that a homeowner's policy does NOT cover for "hurricane" damage, but DOES cover once it's been downgraded.
Given this, I'd be biting my nails if I lived there and was expecting a claim.
