Just to show you what these storms can do well away from the main landfall point...

I lost power for 26 hours here in Tallahassee.

We didn't have *that* much going on here, but it was still more than any of the other storms. Not much rain, mostly a bit of wind resulting in power outages, branches down, and the whole nine yards.

And FSU made the decision to open today. This morning was bad -- intersections out, people without power, debris in the roads, and a wind-driven rain. They could've opened in the afternoon and been just fine...but they're stubborn. A nice wait in the midst of it all for football tickets this morning, but alas -- what can you do?

With the power outage and Jeanne canceling a concert in Jacksonville I was to attend, which summarily messed up my entire weekend...this storm is going down on my crap list.

But, congrats are in order to JK & co. on the new youngun'.

And now....time for some rest.
