We got to do the power dance yesterday afternoon and almost immediately left to go help friends wire their pump so they would have water and nail some tarps over damaged roof. Got home just before curfew with a throbing finger from a bad hammer swing. Almost 54,000 still W/O power in St. Lucie county and schools which never reopened from Frances were damaged worse by jeanne. Every school in county has water damage 10 o'clock news was all Aftermath related and sad. A local family man died when the Waste Truck He was driving didnt spot the low power line in time to stop. He was killed when he contacted the ground and truck at the same time. Woke this morning to story from Martin County that officials going to door to door overnite telling people to leave. The SFWMD people are realeasing water from Swollen Lake Okeechobee over concerns with the dike around it. The additional flow down canal to south fork of river could flood homes today. I wish I had something more positive and funny to post. Hopefully this season has left its finally fury. I keep getting thoughts of a storm moving from sw Carib and moving thru keys and Miami. Stupid paranoid thought. I havent watched football yet this season-- just been to busy or without power. Hurric |
