Hurricane made landfall in Gulf Shores, AL, putting the eastern eyewall into the Florida Panhandle, which, by all reports, received the worst damage. Including the Interstate 10 bridge being knocked out at Escambia County.
(Ap Photo)
Reports are still sketchy as people survey the damage but I suspect we'll be hearing a lot more soon.
Jeanne is still being tracked as well.... more on that later
Ivan is still a hurricane, a minimal one, at 11AM, moving ever so slowly through central Alabama.
I am gone this weekend for a family emergency I will be back monday, the others on the site will take over in the meantime.

Spoke to family in Vero this morning. They are still going through frequent power outages and they aren't taking their plywood down for a while.
Family in Mobile, P-goula, and Gautier are okay as well. I don't think they got too much damage. (fam. in Mobile has a house on the bay. They haven't gone to check things out yet)
Still waiting to hear about beach house in PCB............

Oh great. Look at the 5 day for Jeanne. CAT II chugging through the Bahamas on Sunday...ENOUGH!
(At least if it takes the track it may by my headache, not Florida's).

Is anyone else disturbed by the lack of "news" coming out of Pensacola area?
The I-10 bridge is very bad and will take a long time to repair.
I am concerned that Pensacola and the Islands to the SW of there are very badly hit from .
ANyone have up to date news?

For Florida's sake I hope she doesn't take Accuweather's path.

If you extend the strike line Jeane wouldn't be good for the North Gulf state either. It looks like her path would take into the area just hit.

Sure is shifted more left (west)...nothing surprises me anymore...I sure hope accuwx and JB are both out to lunch on Jeanne... the spaghetti models argue for a northerly turn though, completely sparing FL...but I would imagine they will all move to the left on the next run (these are from the 18Z).

I don't like this one. I'd like to go with what's behind door #3, please!
I'm in SW Florida and am planning to keep the lanai furniture and stuff inside a while longer.

I was watching the NBC affiliate's live internet stream....no videos..bu their reports are out across the area....seems that most Pensacola beach areas are inaccessable b/c their roads are gone in some places....It looks like Baldwin County, AL and the metro Pensacola and beaches took the worst. That I-10 photo is awesome. What the hell was a truck doing on the bridge? duh.
