(114,667 posts)I hope Ian gets enough of cold front shear winds ripping the tops of its clouds apart that the tiger turns into a lap cat and the only damage is a few stray palm fronds that need to be picked up.
Hurricanes suck.

(7,864 posts)I've been watching a live stream of a station in Tampa and they said that Fort Myers, Sanibel Island, and all of Lee County have had terrible storm surge and flooding in addition to horrendous winds.
As soon as you can, please contact us to know that you are safe and how you fared.

(59,147 posts)The rehab center I was at did not fair well & was helicoptered to Health park medical center. As I was at the heleport, I could see Health park was starting to flood. Ambulances after ambulances were arriving, when I was put in an ambulance I was sent to a hospital in Naples
I want to thank you all for the well wishes, good vibes and just good messages.

(320,550 posts)We went through it on 9/11/92 here on Kauai with Hurricane Iniki. It was a Cat 4 but we were lucky we got to stay in my son's house and it didn't blow apart even though it sounded like it at time.
Very best of Good Luck Rebuilding! Sweet William!
