2nd squall just went through--sustained winds of approx. 30mph for 2-3 minutes, with a gust of about 40mph.
I was unable to post through --we saw 80mph for about 30 minutes with gusts to 100mph. I'll try to give comparisons as the day goes on.

Could this go on for days? I'm in Sebring, and it's cloudy and "breezy", very little rain if any. Power has been off and on a bunch of times. Waiting for a big one to knock it out for good, as our grids were only patched after . Very bored at this point.

This second rainband was not nearly as intense as the 1st one that went through around 11am. Winds at OIA gusted to 54mph then.
Right now, in Casselberry which is 20 miles N of Orlando, we are getting ready for a 3rd rain band...which on radar looks to be the most intense so far with the storm.
So far, there hasn't been any damage....one large limb from a tree damagede by has fallen into my backyard.
I'll try to keep posting updates as long as power remains.

This is getting bad i mean the storm has stalled and the storm could regain strength and then make landfall

First rainband came through around 11:30 or so, the winds got strong (gusts to around 45 probably) and some of the trees in our backyard were bending quite a bit. I can only imagine what the early morning hours may bring.
The squall also dumped quite a bit of rain in the 10 minutes that it was over us.
More later...

The Weather Channel is reporting that it appears as though is once again moving. Hopefully they're right.

In Orlando, second squall line justwent through. Wind was stronger for this one in Apopka than the first one this morning. Knocked power out briefly.
Reports from Orlando include a large section around Conway without power already.
Also, 22 foot waves at the bouy 20 miles off port canaveral. the wave heights aren't being recorded anymore at that bouy. The highest at the bouy 120 miles out was 30 feet.

If you have access to the digital tv channels (HDTV) ABC has a secondary channel called ABC News Now which was put up to cover the Political Conventions.
It's now broadcasting a live feed from Miami ABC channel 10. They've got reporters up and down the coast w/ live reports and even reports from one of the Bahama Islands.
We don't have cable, (we're getting digital over the air) so no , CNN etc, and we're far away so no local 24 hour stuff.
Lots of radar and other info.

it might get stronger. However, the large eyewall will prevent the winds speeds from getting too fast, I think...
The jog south is probably just an illusion, and merely a "rebuilding" phase of the hurricane gaining in intensity.
If it linger through Florida....a terrible rain even. Ought to refill the Everglades, I suppose...

Another squall just rolled through here about 10 minutes ago. It was accompanied by heavy rain and 45-50 mph wind gusts, perhaps a little more intense than the first squall. This particular band has a very impressive radar signature.
It seems that things are starting to go downhill here somewhat. is looking better as well.

Some debris that was still in the trees from is falling. Some power outages in parts of the City. Beachside, the wind is gusting to 40+ MPH, roofs damaged by are starting come apart.

The Mrs. just came into the room and she said she heard to the west.
I live about 1 1/2 miles SE of kmlb.
So far we lost the aluminum roof over the car port it didn't help that the boy backed into and broke one of the uprights. And we've lost a couple of shingles off the north face of the roof. Not too bad for a 105 year old house.

Looks like it is barely moving and if at all a little wnw. We have winds gusting 60-70 mph. The NWS just said we have a feeder band heading this way with 80 mph. We have lost power a few times but it came back on. I am guessing we won't have it much longer as more bands are headed this way.
