Thank you for posting the power outage information. The numbers are staggering across the peninsula.

Ominously, Monroe Co. (the Keys and extreme SW peninsula) is not included in the list.

The numbers are staggering across the peninsula.

I heard CBS Radio news at 9am. Only a brief mention of Florida, then a report live from Eastern Long Island -- where 2200 people have lost power. 2200!!!! Oh, but it's New York, so it's much more important!
