...How is RC (and family)??
.
WE ARE FINE!!
There was another thread about the storm, and I kept checking that post for Joe to reply, but I didnt see one.
Dont wanna sound like Im complaining, because in the grand scheme of things, we did ok.
All my nice landscape designed trees were down. (got them all back up)
2 big oak trees and a flowering tree down (saved the 2 oaks)
3- 50 gallon bags full of debris from the pool
At least 25 tiles missing/broken from roof.
My entire berm area (Joe has seen it) is full of snapped ficus trees (those of you who are familiar with ficus', they usually uproot, rarely snap.
The first wave came through from the SE, winds were about 90mph sustained. Second wave came from due W...this was the main damage-causing wind...about 110 sustained and 120+ gusts....Most of my landscaping fell towards the E....the tiles missing were on the W side of the house...we could here the thumping on the roof.
I had very little flooding here, since it is new area, drainage is excellent, and our houses are raised up about 8'
We lost power at 9am and got it back at 8PM...not too shabby.
I prayed for all those on here that I know, and it seems like everyone will do just fine.
Thanks
RC
