We are in a recent subdivision by the St. Johns River in the Jax area. The power lines in our community are underground so that speeds up power restoration/disaster recovery. County does a good job with debris removal, too. This one just doesn’t feel like a monster to me. Cat 3 and it’s mostly about the kids missing some school for most people. Obviously, I could be wrong. Good luck!

Now they're saying there's a good chance this will be a Cat 4 by Friday.

Exactly where landfall will be along the coast is still up for grabs.

I live away from any town in the country but I am on a major highway, so I'll get power restored, if it goes out, pretty quickly. Probably in a day or two. People just a couple of miles off the highway, went weeks to get power back on after the last blow.

The hurricanes give our many oak trees a haircut and there is debris everywhere. Tree debris cleanup after the last storm took my wife and I two weeks, working every day, to pick it all up and haul to our burn pile. We have 30 acres and limbs fall on the fences and the cows can get out. Yikes! :-)

Good luck to you.
