Our Central Florida County has a population of 100,000. We are now 98% restored (mine Fri. night). God Bless all of the people who restored hope in this County and all who do in every corner of the USA!
>>One million people in GA lost their power. Some just getting power back this weekend.
I think it was more like 1.5 million or more. I have a screen shot of the GA Power outage map from around 10PM on Monday 9/11. It shows 897,486 *customers* down. Most are residences, and most have more than one occupant.
GA Power is currently showing only 38 outages and 113 customers without power. Their outage map is pretty slick:

Now, they aren’t 100% of electricity suppliers in GA, but they serve the vast majority of the state.
Great news! Sweet relief! Getting the lights back on is a huge step toward storm recovery.
Heard they were throwing drinks at workers and eggs at their trucks.
Agreed here, too. BTW, I stumbled onto another paper on trochoidal oscillations.

Many references are included therein. This paper is beyond my ability to seriously absorb in the few minutes I would have “here or there” anytime soon, and it’s really more in metmom’s area of expertise, so I’m just posting it in case anyone is interested. :-)
It’d be nice if this storm just wobbled itself apart, but I don’t think it’s going to happen soon enough...
Has it hit St Croix yet ?
It’s getting close, they are certainly having a rough go of it right now.
Maria is at its peak right now on the Water Vapor Imagery with no dry air in its path.
Maria is nearing landfall at maximum strength...
Here is one on the Fujiwhara Tango.

Good grief! The residents should be giving them drinks!
It sounds like the power co. should announce they will not do repairs in areas where they are harassed in the slightest.
....”Pondering what life would be like without power for 2, 3, 4 months”...
Dangerous.
Earlier on the eye wall was just a pin prick of a thing...tight as could be..even though it was gaining it strength it retained tiny for quite some time...which as I understand it attested to the power of this beast.
Outer bands have.....lots of rain today even...
Be strong, cll. Keep your mind focused. We’re doing the worrying for you. Hope it goes well for you, my friend. Post when you can.
Thanks..going to take a look see....
