Woke up to go to the bathroom and my lights were flickering and the wind was howling. Tried to go back to sleep and said screw it. Gypsy, my dog, and I were going to sit on the porch and watch it, but we got drenched the first time the wind blew and said screw that. So I am sitting in the living room, drinking coffee and listening to this storm. Gylsy is sleeping beside me.
I think the wind is a little stronger than the 30 to 40 they were predicting when I looked yesterday. Hopefully, we get a break in the rain in the next few hours so Gypsy can go pee. She will not go out in this rain no matter what. Tried to get her to go a little while ago when it slacked off for a minute and she said noped.

Little breeze blowing here in Northeast Tallahassee and Iβm hoping it blows the pine straw off the high points on the roof.
These so called weathermen on YouTube hype these storms up way too much. We were better off just listening to weather reports on the radio and enjoying some rum runners back in the day.
We need someone like Anumber1 giving us weather reports along with some of those Citrus County biker chicks. π

Good luck to all y'all in Debbie's path. Don't drive through the water.

Storm surge already hitting the Alligator Point area pretty solid. Docks were underwater hours ago how the fuck do you get a storm surge with the storm 150 miles south of you??? The problem with the big bend is how shallow it is.

Seems like it went inland a lot of miles. Didn't get reported on much as not much of a wind event and it's a low population area. I'm a little concerned about Illinoisfisherman. He's not in the best of health and I believe he brought his wife down?

Looking at the track this morning would lead me to believe surge could be a problem from about roughly Tampa to Stienahatchee. I think high tide was about 0545 or so.
I would think Artemis, TRT, Restless Native, and the rest took a pretty good shot this morning in the Homosassa area.

Drove all day. Went home. Friends are at the house. Thanks. Just waking up. Long ride! 7 dogs to take care of and 4 women kind of slow the trip down. Difficult but worth the extra effort!ππ

My best guesstimate is 4 ft surge and rising in Homosassa at present.
