Sarasota, Florida, 9:40 AM: Wind is rising just a bit, about 5 mph in the last 30 minutes. The wind is from the WNW (300 degrees) at 43 MPH (37 KT) gusting to 60 MPH (53 KT). Pressure is holding at 988 mb. Rain is becoming harder, about a ¼” in the last hour. Lots of leaves and small branches down, but no trees yet in our area. Power continues to go on and off. FPL is going to have their work cut out for them to do restoration after Jeanne passes. It took 2 weeks to do all the restoration after Francis and 3 weeks for Charley.
