Hang in there, hopefully you haven't had any serious damage or flooding. At least you still have power...

As far as I can tell my house is fine...really haven't had the time to fully inspect yet...only lost power for 5 mins last night -- however I've got a 15K watt generator just in case.

Not much damage down in West Palm, out in Wellington a tornado went
through and tore the roofs off the Palm Beach Equine Clinic, good thing
it is not Polo season and there were no horses inside.

Just some minor flooding around were I live and some downed limbs, no
power lost.

We left Clearwater Beach, FL just in time --- right before Fay was on her way. We were there from August 7-16.

I am in JAX and even though they have dropped the Hurricane watch i am expecting more winds than anywhere else since we will be on the North side of the storm and I live in JAX beach. I am about to board up some windows, but nothing major expected from this one.

Just saw this story on Fox. Apparently a tiger is on the loose in West Palm and residents are aked to stay indoors and call police if they spot the tiger!!!

FYI: I was able to get away without any damage to my home or car. And the storm beat us up all day yesterday as it raced (at 2-5mph) West across the state...
