This is water that came in our patio door from Tropical Storm Fay.
Tropical Storm Hannah is making her last appearance and waving goodbye. We thought she was going to go right by us, but she backed up close to us and sent us alot of wind and rain. The wind was between 30 and 40 mph on Tuesday and yesterday. There are trees and signs down, but no major damage that I'm aware of. The streets were flooded, but I don't believe quite as badly as with Fay because Hannah gave breaks in between the rain. It is still breezy today, but not as strong.
The only damage done to us was a wet living room/dining room floor which got our rug wet and now it smells like a dead animal. :-) We were glad to see the sun for a few hours this morning and dry out a bit. Now it is raining again.
Now we are awaiting to see where Hurricane Ike will go. It is to be near here on Sunday. It looks like a beast. We're hoping it goes above us as predicted, but no man seems to be able to accurately predict these hurricanes. I really hope it doesn't hit anywhere.
We use this website to keep track of what is happening in the Atlantic/Caribbean. We check it everyday during hurricane season which goes up through November 30.
