I think we dodged a bullet. The hurricane will stay offshore, though it has been raining for a couple of days and will likely rain for another day or two.

Looks like the Carolinas got hit hard. A once in a thousand year rainfall.

Some high tides here and a lot of wind. But, all in all....not bad.

Glad you east coast guys are safe, but can you give us some of our rain back now?

Watching the news over coffee and the giant 'atmospheric river' as they call it reminds me of the '97-'98 El Nino out here in California. We got five inches of rain in a half hour here.

Has the Federal government declared it a disaster area yet?

I actually drove to the VB oceanfront this morning at 3 a.m...

Lots of wind but the rain had stopped. The waves were intense and the tide was high. There were cops there advising people to stay off the beach............. But, there were people on the beach anyhow.

The worst part was the sand. With all of that wind it only took a few minutes to get that dang sand into everything.
