We are fine so far! Wind gusts throughout the night up to 70mph, and some rain... Archived Message Posted by Bryan on August 30, 2023, 12:40 pm, in reply to "Happy Hurricane Idalia, everyone!" My pool went up about 3" overnight, but fortunately no damage at all. My screens are still blown out from Ian last year. The drainage canal in the median of the street filled up, but didn't overflow, so I was very lucky. I did a walk around the neighborhood and only found a couple of smaller tree limbs down. Miraculously, our power and internet didn't go down, so my brother and I could keep informed all night. The city is telling us the worst may not be over as the feeder bands and storm surge may bring flooding later today with the next high tide, but there has been no rain here since 8am. I am doubtful it be a problem. Thank you for your kind thoughts and prayers. Message Thread: Happy Hurricane Idalia, everyone! - Bryan August 29, 2023, 10:43 pm We are fine so far!
