Just got off the phone with my friend in Palm Bay. He still has electric, cable, phone, and air conditioning, but his utilities are all buried.

He did say he was very scared, however. Said he heard on the radio there were tornadoes touching down near his area, and said he had heard some really bad winds in the last thirty.

Peeked out his back door, and his very tall pine tree is in the neighbor's yard at this time.

His wife is 30 miles north taking care of her critically ill mother, in a supposedly very storm secure home.

His back yard is also full of lawn furniture and plastic garbage cans that blew in from other places in the neighborhood.

He's laughing about it, because that's all you really can do...you know?

Other than cry
