We fared well, thanks for asking. Hardly a breeze on Friday. My sister lives near us and has one of those fancy weather stations on her roof that hooks into her computer.
The highest wind gust was 20 mph.
They deconstructed the Emergency Team at 9 PM on Friday night, so my husband was able to come home then.
My MIL was evacuated to Sarasota, and actually got a little more weather down there than she would have gotten in her waterfront retirement home on Tampa Bay.
We "unboarded" on Saturday AM. and actually had more weather on Saturday, a tornado supposedly was spotted near the mouth of Tampa Bay moving across the Bayway, and that's pretty close to us.
They talk about how "false alarms" make one complacent...but after seeing those pictures from south Florida, they've made me more diligent about our preparations next time they say a storm is headed our way.

Yep, I need to get moving and see about reviving that old welder/generator today.
