Milton was no joke. Our little area north west of Tampa came through
Ok. We still have power and no damage. I wish I could say the same for the surrounding counties. Lots of flooding and damage along the coast and across the state.
Going to be a long road to recovery after these last 2 but it will happen.

So glad to hear it. It's the effect of so-called reverse storm surge that leads to less damages. But
It may be just temporary. Milton is so powerful that it suck water out of Tampa bay which created a reverse storm surge. From some camera the bottom of the bay can even be seen. The water will come back, hopefully in a less violent way. So, still be careful, Tampa.
Great news!!

Glad you got through ok. Now is the time for the Feds to spend money on Americans,
and not send it overseas.
Thank your blessings. You are fortunate.

Looks like the experts overhyped the “unsurvivable” narrative.
Cat 3 is no day at the beach. But they hyped Cat 5 all week to get viewers amped.
Glad to hear you guys survived.
Negligible search and rescue missions because folks heeded government orders and guidance.
Local authorities credit residentsโ overwhelming cooperation, particularly those living on the coast, resulting in minimal loss of lives.
Always better safe than sorry.
Prudence is a positive, not a negative.
Yep. We called that the minute they started coverage.

Nothing better than survival stories! Now it's time to heal and rebuild. Good luck.
Milton wrote Paradise Lost... but then Paradise Regained!
Agreed. We’ll start here. Take care of what needs to be done and then head
Over to the in-laws retirement community. Lots of cleanup to be done for those in the community.
Great to hear for you, man. I waited it out in Orlando.
Some heavy wind and rain, but otherwise all good. Glad you are the same.
Sorry you had to fly out of Orlando
Flying out of there is a nightmare.
2/3 of passengers on every plane pre-board. Awful place to fly out of.

Reminds of a Bill Burr bit.
And flying out of Orlando you get all the crabby kids burnt out from Disney.
