Jantrix Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Yeah looks like it's gonna hit us in Jax on Wednesday, hopefully she'll have run out of steam by then.
46 Marty Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Good luck to all. Hope she isn't too bad. Rick
58 Impala Posted August 19, 2008 Posted August 19, 2008 Hope it blows hard enough here in central Florida to get a day off work and spend the afternoon building.
MikeMc Posted August 19, 2008 Author Posted August 19, 2008 schools shut....and a curfew.... I think thats worse than the storm

MonoPed Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Well, the roads will almost be safe to travel on then Ain't that the truth!! All we got up this way was very scattered showers from the northern-most outer bands. I kinda feel cheated
locoengr Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Outside of the flooding didn't many parts of Florida need some of this rain?
MikeMc Posted August 20, 2008 Author Posted August 20, 2008 Outside of the flooding didn't many parts of Florida need some of this rain? Nope its further north Lake Lanier is way dry still....... We got 10 " of rain Tuesday....had POWER...but no phone or cable....... We made it without any damage....still got a chuckle out of my neighbors boating in the driveway!!!!!
Jantrix Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Well she is sitting off shore right now, gaining strength again. She'll be headed towards Jax soon. I'm at work right now, so I hope she holds off till dawn because they will close the bridges and I'll be screwed. We've gotten loads of rain, which has really given my new drainage system for the front yard the acid test. So far so good.
MonoPed Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Right now I'm getting rain from the outer bands again, it is a slooooow moving storm to say the least.
58 Impala Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Here in Melbourne we were doing the backstroke! 24" of rain! Boy were we glad to see Fay finally move, she stalled 4 times. Sorry for the folks north of us, I sincerely feel your pain. We would have been better off with a fast moving Cat I hurricane. To all the fellow Floridians on this forum who are still in the way, try and stay dry.
