Glad this one didn’t smack you. I think I recall a few years back, you had some serious damage to deal with.

haven t heard from them in a while, reelapeelin is up that way also

Scook, we had a cat 5 almost 6 years ago oct 10. Still rebuilding

What sucks about this one is the scope of the damage from Florida up to Tennessee. The power grid alone is mind boggling. I know why they do it, speed and expense, but it should be illegal to put in power lines above ground,especially on new construction

Talked vto Vic and Ferm yesterday. Vics house got trashed, water inside the house about 5 feet deep. He had a 9 ft surge in his area. The V and the INV boats were inland, the stumpknocker got squeezed in the boat lift. He was pretty tired when I talked to him. Ferm had a couple trees down and that was about it. I'll call Ozzie today

Wow praying for those guys! As some of you guys may know Asheville NC and the mountains got hammered with flooding. Had my daughter's situation not changed drastically in the last year she would have still been living in Asheville. So I am grateful she was not there for this. Praying for everyone impacted by this storm.

It is. I can't get over the devastation all the way up. We were so lucky hereabouts.
