No physical damage to my home (I live a mile from the St Johns River, which left its bank with rain water and storm surge).

Power outage only. Along with 250K other JEA customers. Likely to be out for a week. Thanks to great neighbors, we have a support network to take care of elderly and other high-risk friends.


Still, I can't wait to get me some of that good FEMA ice and Budweiser canned water (although I don't think I'll be able to tell the difference between that canned water and their Ultra-lite product line).
