I guess I'm a real Floridian now since I rode out a Cat-3 storm. We had planned to evacuate to Jax and then were going to stay with a friend but they got evacuated so we ended up staying here. We lost power for a few days and had no Internet, except for the phones. Was hard to find gas, and I sat in a line for 3 hours to get some which really sucked. I did go up to Pasco county and found some a lot easier on Saturday.
The good? We have all our plywood to board up the house and it's organized and stored in the garage. We're also set up with the generator now and it runs, so we can keep food cold. I also have gas cans so we're ready.
The bad? Well it sucks for a lot of people and we did have water come up through the slab. That and the next storm coming. Yes, I did say next storm. Yes, the joys of Florida life.
All in all it could have been worse, a lot worse.
