Daylight came this morning and we’re able to survey what Irma left in her wake. The storm veered east, and saved us a ton of problems. We have no power but we do have water. My yard is a mess, but there’s really no damage, just a big mess to clean up.
The dire predictions of an enormous storm surge turned out to be ridiculous. It was only 1-2 ft in Tampa Bay. There was no flooding at all at my sisters house on the island so that piece of paradise was spared.
Hopefully, we will get power back on in the next day or two. Feeling very blessed this morning. We were ready, and expected so much worse.
Love and light to all.

In my experience, the catastrophic predictions of news media do not come true for MOST people. I hope your electricity comes back on soon! 🙂
Thanks, and I hope you don’t get hit by the storm now! I think they predicted the worst because of Houston. No one wanted to be responsible for not warning. I gotta say that when the water got sucked out of the bay it scared me the most. That was weird!
I can imagine that would be weird! Glad you’re okay.
I guess that woman couldn’t make up her mind. So is there anything new?
