Riders on the storm, check in!!

[nytemare]

I am pretty far inland, in Orlando. We are getting the rainbands. Any other DUer's affected by the storm in FL?

[nytemare]

1. Kick! Where are all you Floridians?

I know you are out there!

2. We're completely out of the way in Tallahassee...

AirmensMom is getting the worst of it right now. Send her some love!

[nytemare]

4. I hope she is ok!

Where is she at? Naples area?

Are you getting any rain in Tallahassee? It is sure a huge storm.

[Clintmax]

6. Nothing so far up here.

We're too far away I think.

[nytemare]

7. The panhandle area sure gets a lot of them.

Seems like Pensacola, Apalachicola suck all those hurricanes in.

3. Orlando Area here

Oviedo Fl. Lot of wind and rain, but everything is holding up.


Hope all those due south are ok!

to everyone!

5. Oviedo is a nice town.

We had a tornado warning just east of where I live. I am in SW Orlando area.

Looks like it will clear out by 3 now. Quick storm.

8. I live close to UCF

Lived in Winter Park for 17 years until 3 years ago. Things are more quiet here now.

12. Winter Park is nice, traffic can be bad.

Oviedo is a little nicer, but I expect urban sprawl will catch up to all these towns sooner or later.

I like the mall in Oviedo.

[lumberingbear]

16. Yes it is nice to run over to Oviedo Marketplace.

Everything you need without having to go to the larger malls and fighting the traffic along the way.

17. I have shopped there with my sister for Christmas a couple of years.

December 20th seemed like a Tuesday in October there. It was nice not having to weave around crowds of people.

9. My daughter lives in Hollywood in Broward County.

I haven't spoken to her yet this morning, but it looks like her area is going to get some of the storm.

[nytemare]

13. Yeah, the bottom half looks to be going to exit some of Broward.

I hope she is doing ok.

10. I'm starting to get smacked pretty hard now.

I live on the east coast, but directly in the path of the storm. Was surprised to see I had power when I woke around 7:30am, but I suspect it won't last much past the next two hours.

My house is very thoroughly boarded, and we are well-supplied. It's just a matter of keeping calm and waiting it out now. :)

[nytemare]

14. Are you in Palm Beach area?

It does look to be nasty through there. Hope you keep power!

11. Tornado spotted in Bravard County

Tornado waring in Osceola County (All south of Orlando)

[nytemare]

15. Brevard has been getting the bad parts of the rainbands.

I think Clermont has gotten it pretty bad, too.
