Yeah it was at 105 mph at 14:00...up to 110 mph by the time I got home at 15:15 and remained there until landfall at 16:00. We ok so far, guessing 35-40 mph constant winds, with gusts around 55-60. Had a couple of tornado warnings an hour or so ago, but were a little west and north of us. Have heard a few trees pop already and something bounced off the skylight in dining room, but so far still dry, have power, cable and internet (knocking on wood). :cool:

Hi everyone...just dropping in to let you know I haven’t disappeared again. Lifted something the wrong way yesterday, and now my back, elbow and foot are making me see stars when I move. Laying low..literally. Hope everyone is doing well. I haven’t had the news on, so don’t know what the storm is doing. @Scratch08 & @Fin stay safe

No problem here, except the cold front is moving in. A little windy and cooler.

I want to know what you guys are doing over there. It’s like these storms are drawn to you. You know it’s bad when I have both of you programmed in my weather app...;Woot

Thanks for keeping an eye on us over this way. The storms come in spurts. Our area was without a major hurricane from Hurricane Audrey in 1957 until Rita in 2005. Including Rita, we have had three majors in 15 years in SW Louisiana/SE Texas border (with a few smaller ones). Usually, it is just hot and humid here with a mild winter. Still have a month left to hurricane season this year. Hopefully, it will be quiet the rest of this year.

Fine here. The storm went in on the opposite side of the state from us. We only had a little light rain and wind that was from the cold front coming through this afternoon. Apparently it was a weird storm though. They just said on our news that it went through New Orleans in about 45 minutes, so it must have been moving really fast. @Scratch08 was on the east side of the storm (in Gulf Shores, AL), which is usually the worst side of a hurricane. Hopefully, they did ok over there.
