Re: Ivan Nears Landfall - Jeanne Departs Puerto Rico

we'vw had a waterspout off the island here; one tornado off Carrabelle, I think another tornado but not sure where. My cable is down, don't get any local channels (JK's is the closest to me at about 75 mi. away) so no television. I have power, phone (thank God, dsl) and about 13" water under the house (on stilts); highest gusts here have been 64, mostly about 40-mph; heavy rain off and on. The waves on the gulf are HUGE and violent,compared to the norm.
I am so rhankful to be just at the edge.
Still a Cat IV?

And I'm on the very eastern edge of the hw....
