The eye looks like it's in eastern Sarasota County ... and moving up toward Orlando. It should be plenty strong even once it hits the Atlantic.

... Part 11 ...

Thank god, we finally got a hold of our co-worker, Vicki, down in Port Charlotte. She and her husband are hunkered down under their kitchen table with a mattress. They're losing shingles and part of their roof.

The eye is going over Arcadia now. Pretty soon, bands of Charley will whip around through our area ... but, all in all, we're so damn lucky.

I may actually be able to go home tonight after we finish putting the paper together.

Glad you're ok. Lots of accidents and injury from people being evacuated from Tampa to Ft. Myers area, from what I'm seeing.
