I am so glad the storm gulped some dry air. If that thing had been what it was thought to be.....
Yep.
Glad CR, Haz, and Mike's folks fared well..... Hope Les did as well.
It hit with way less brutality than originally forecast in southern Georgia.
Our church opened a Good Samaritan shelter during the storm, with fifty or so folks that came in. We worked there until around 11 PM Sunday and went home (2 miles away) for some shut-eye. We went back early Monday morning before the worst of it hit to prepare and serve breakfast and rode it out there.
There was not as much damage to homes as anticipated, and power outage was the main problem. The church had partial outage until around noon today. We were without power at the house for around 36 hours (got it back at 6 PM yesterday, thankfully not long enough for our three freezers to start thawing deer meat). I've lived on this property for nearly fifty years and this was the longest span of power loss that I can remember. There are still some folks without power.
I can see a generator purchase in the near future (at least large enough to power the camper and freezers).We have a lot pf pecan tree limbs down (some of considerable size) on our property, but none on any buildings (thankfully).
