so I just woke up - is this thing over yet?

8/27/2011 7:35:47 AM

just making landfall in the past hour...got awhile to go

8/27/2011 7:39:19 AM

I've got the main branch of a weeping willow snapped over. A couple of wax myrtles between my yard and the neighbors snapped. Lots of limb debris in the yard. From 3:45-4am it seems the worst so far with gust causing the house to creek. Power was going on and off until 4am when we finally lost it. Hoping to sneak down to the water front in a bit and get some pictures of the Bogue Sound.

8/27/2011 7:56:52 AM

Haha, not a bro at all. He's like 50. I've been watching him all night. I feel like I've known him all my life.

He sat at a gas station waiting for the awning to blow over for about 6 hours. It never happened.

Early reports for my parents place on the Neuse.... 4-4.5' of water in the house, which is probably a 12-15' surge height. Not sounding good. One of our sheds was pushed about 100' from its foundation and now is sitting in the middle of our road the other one may have been knocked off its elevated foundation... hopefully it didn't take out a wall on the house. pictures to come sometime. parents are hoping to get back there tomorrow.

8/27/2011 2:53:42 PM

The sustained winds have definitely lessened....


However...the gusts are as strong as the have been and are lasting longer than they were before....


I've started calling them sustained gusts....


It's still very nasty here

8/27/2011 5:40:34 PM

Well played Greenville Utilities. It's times like these that your super inflated 3rd party tarrifed rates are justified.

LET THERE BE LIGHT AC

8/27/2011 5:40:57 PM

rain just stopped here

8/27/2011 6:06:33 PM

The gusts are still god awful but at least there are light spots in the clouds...


Surely its moving out
