I'm in St. Pete, and live only 10 minutes from the beach, but we're on the mainland and pretty high (level D evac).

So far we've been very fortunate in this county. Flooding in areas that are prone to flooding, but not much wind damage or structural damage.

Power woes, but hasn't everybody in the state had those, LOL!

Our 2 percent deduct would have us out of pocket for a new roof (our roof is only a year old), but I've heard horror stories about the deduct being recalculated on every storm and am feeling very sorry for those that have taken losses from more than one hurricane.

We just took our boards down last Saturday, if storm intensifies or track has this coming straight across the state, guess we'll put them back up.

We're fortunate in that the city finally picked up our 5 foot high pile of yard debris from Frances this past week.

It has been tough -- direct hit from Charley (Port Charlotte area). We survived better than most, but this is getting real old. At least some people still have a sense of humor left. ";^)

I thought FEMA would help out with those deducts?

Believe it or not, there is still debris that has yet to be picked up from Charlie in my area.

You can tell what hurrican the debris is from by the amount of decay. After Jeanne, we will have three colors of roadside debris.

lol

Gallows humor.
