Mary K, you're a long way away from all the excitement!

Actually, it looks like she's going to go out to the Atlantic before she comes through Orlando. :worship:

I just heard that 51 homes were destroyed by a tornado in Barefoot Bay ~ it's a mobile home community south of the Space Center. They're probably floating by now.

I hope so, too. Barefoot Bay is a retirement community, so hopefully a lot of the snow-birds (it's a term of endearment, I swear!) are still up north.

It's going to start getting nastier here pretty soon. Maybe I'll have tomorrow off, too.

*wheeeeee!*

CPES only takes a couple hours to dry at the current temps...

But if you're talking about putting CPES on the house, the cars, the yard, the trailers, the trees, etc... I think it might be too late!

The sky is clear overhead right now. We've had small showers nothing else at the moment. Tomorrow and Thursday will probably be another story.

Poor Melbourne (near the Space Center) STILL has torrential rains. The nursing home facility that the company I work for owns, has catfish in the parking lot! Orlando has had nothing but breezy rain for a couple of days.

West Palm Beach had two tigers loose, but they've been caught. One goofy guy was kite surfing and got beat up pretty badly there, too. Hope he'll be okay.
