Hurricane update

BalletBabe — Fri, 27 Sep 2024 02:34:34 GMT

Thanks to all that prayed. It is 10:22 pm Thursday night. It has been a long day. Still getting pretty bad gusts of wind. Didn't get much rain, just a lot of wind. I moved here in 2003 and I have to say this is the worst one I have been through.

I lost power about 5 times. It didn't last long when it would go out, but I am so grateful for the Lanterns and Bolts I have purchased over the years from QVC.

Florida is in for a big clean up and lots of damage. Many didn't leave when told to do so. I am sure there will be loss of life. Pray for those that are stuck in their homes and can't get help and pray for those who will lose everything.

It is really sad after it is over to see the devastation. Thanks again to all that prayed.It meant a lot.

@SouthernBee Yes keep praying because it is not over. I will be picking up tree limbs for several days. I will have to look into one of those. You in Florida? I have 5 bolts. I ran a fan one one, and light on another, .and used the other for the light. They just showed Tampa General Hospital and tons of cars there. So sad.

@BalletBabe : I'm in Georgia near Fort Moore. My worst experience was 1995 with Opal. No property damage but yard full of tree limbs and food loss. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I've been watching the storm progression all day. You'd think it was knocking at my door, but I'm so concerned for all the Floridians.

Take care of yourselves; were thinking of you.

Fort Moore...Just this week I learned that Fort Benning has been renamed Fort Moore. When did this take place? I was born in Ft Benning (or was I born in Ft Moore?)

I can hear what appears to be the last of Helene! Thanks for all the prayers and. don't forget those still in the path of a deadly storm!

We lucked out! Haven't even had the lights blink.

Someone in our community posted that we didn't have any damage just some debris. Not in a flood area!

I think I will be able to sleep tonight! Prayers for those waiting for Helene. She is not nice company!!!!

I wasn't aware of the storm. Well, I knew one was brewing but that was a few days ago. I hope everyone stays safe and moves to higher ground if you've been warned to evacuate. It wasn't a hurricane but we went thru this type of weather this past spring and were homeless for 3 days. Yard full of tree limbs and loss of food. Tornadoes but we weren't hit with one.
