just getting back on after some much needed sleep, and catching up..
We're still pretty gusty here with wind steady at around 30, with gusts to 45+, pressure still at 29.42, but rising from a low of 29.18. Our NWS radio station is out, but other than that not a lot of damage to report. I lost a few more soffit panels from my house, but they were damaged during already. Also, to Jason..congratulations on your latest arrival.

Here is a picture, albeit a low quality one, of me about an hour ago at Indian Rocks Beach in Pinellas County. Winds here are gusting to 75mph.

In fact it's such a hard turn it may make it *back* out into the atlantic before too long if it keeps that recurvature up...

In Parrish my barometer isrising from 29.30 (everybody's is calibrated diferently) However in mine went to 29.18.Very similar wind and rain conditions as reported in Sarasota...but frequency and intensity is diminishing...Storm is certainly more to the NNW now and it made a pretty sudden shift thatway it was discernible in the conditions here.
4 ft. above normal tides predicted in Bradenton as we speak.

Just watching Jerve and the radar out of Tampa....looks like the eye is almost NNW, but I know things can be deceptive. What are you driving, Ronn, to be able to get around in that wind??? It really blowin here !!!

The barometric pressure here in Seminole appears to have bottomed out at 29.15in, an indication that Jeanne may be at her closest point of approach. In , the pressure dropped to 29.03in. Even so, winds have been much stronger with Jeanne than with .

Pressure is now down to 29.12in.

i think that Hurricane Jeanne will move west into the gulf of mexico and loop back to Florida.

Jeanne has now crossed the axis of the 500 mb ridge and is now making it's northward turn; now moving NW and will not make a direct hit on Tampa-St Pete; current track suggests it may not make it to the Gulf of Mexico if turn persists.

Hey Terry. I was driving a Ford Ranger pick-up, not the best vehicle to be in because it catches a lot of wind. It was rocking a bit. 
Here are a couple more shots from Indian Rocks Beach. These are low quality, because I am snapping them from some very shaky camcorder footage.

Jeanne at one time was just 10 miles north Sebring and made a pretty dramatic and radical turn; but now is resuming once a gain a 290-300 heading; maybe in the last few minutes 280 towards the coast; now I'm beginning to wonder with what appears to be a very small eye; it might actually make it back out to the GOM! One county to go!

well... wind gusts are picking up... one just a minute ago rattled the dishes... but only briefly... now it is quiet... barometric pressure is dropping at a more rapid rate though... will be keeping an eye on things....
darn cell phone battery won't charge... gotta admit, the timing is perfect... guess I'll drive into Tallahassee and see if I can get a new one before it gets too bad..
i am surrounded by trees, Trees, and more TREES!! all that shade has a price..
hope Jeanne DOESN'T go into the GOM... it is kind of iffy whether it will go to the east or west of us... OR hit us dead on...
whatever we get, though, won't be near what central Florida has suffered... we lived at Satellite Beach when I was in jr high and high school... MSNBC was just showing pics and commentary on the damage there... I have family near Titusville, as well...

Sarasota, Florida, 1:30 PM: The wind continues to be strong from the WNW (290 degrees) at 51 MPH (44 KT) gusting to 60 MPH (52 KT). The rain is heavier, about ½” in the last 20 min. We are now SSW of the eye about 70 miles. The pressure has risen about 1 mb to 989 mb. We have a strong squall over us now. The local TV is showing lots of minor damage, downed trees, signs etc., but no major stuff in sarasota. I suspect in Parrish and south Hilsbrough counties their is more damage.
