On another thread, someone claiming to be a nurse kept attacking me, saying I was full of it for having posted that a Cat 5 storm would shear pine forests like a giant scythe. These photos show it.

I am very fortunate. I live in Northern Holmes County. I got almost no damage, even my TV antenna is still good. Limbs all over my yard.

I even got power back although just about everything in the refrigerator is spoiled. Also got cell phone service back late Friday.

It really blew here too but nothing like other places.

I zoom in on some houses nearby and they look undamaged.

In the US over 100 people die in transportation accidents each day.

Had this happen near my house. A “Red Pine” stand of trees (hundreds) was laid flat by I don’t know what.

Mini tornado? UFO? It looked a lot like that photo.

Upstate NY just 6 or 8 miles outside Ithaca.

His Mercy is from everlasting to everlasting....

...but sometimes “does anyone know where the love of God goes....”

Truly devastating damage and heartache on display here.

Wood frame structures are just waiting to be blown away here in Florida. You gotta have CBS at least on the bottom floor to survive anything more than a Cat 2 hurricane and the resulting tornadoes.

You can see one structure intact in a large empty area - the only CBS construction in that neighborhood.

I think I accidentally killed my dog.

Yesterday I gave him a half pound of bacon which I was afraid to eat. Today he has disappeared. I began to wonder and looked it up. Bacon can be deadly to dogs.

At least 4 F-22’s were caught in their hangar at Tyndall AFB.

They might be able to be repaired.

Access road destroyed near Air Station, lots of siding and roof damage, blown out windows, undermined foundations, but not the disaster that it would have been if the hurricane path was slightly more to the east

These pics are horrifying! Prayers continue for these folks, and those participating in search/rescue and shelter operations.


Two men look at a road destroyed during Hurricane Michael near Eastpoint, Florida, on October 12, 2018.
