No, Florida is just shattering all over the place...

When I was at work we watched the 'radar in motion' deals on some website (prolly weather.com) and we saw all of the interstate markings etc... on the map blow off of the screen... ;)

I heard a little while ago the storm is hitting with 145mph winds which makes it a category 4.

The maximum sustained winds were 140 mph when it landed. If they were 145 then
Gobbla might have been hit with a VW or something. Whew...:D

When you consider Celia in 1970, ya.;)
I believe she had 180-ish maximum sustained winds.:eek:

My brother in law arrived in Florida yesterday and he called us to let us know he got there safe they sent him and his crew from Sinton and Corpus Christi to clean up the mess after the storm is over.

News report I saw last night looks like the cleanup is going to be huge. Something like 100,000 homes without power and trees, vehicles and all sorts of things destroyed.
