Hope my Florida siblings made it.

I called my brother Tuesday and we talked about the hurricane. He and my sister have houses in Eustis just yards apart. He had already nailed plywood over all his windows. He is a professional welding instructor and has several large generators that can run his entire house but the flooding is my concern. It is a certainty that all the power there is lost and I am hearing nothing from them.

Whatever it is, you will only be able to find it with a flashlight unless the sun is shining.

Have in laws in Port Orange, Daytona, and Ormand Beach and none of them have power at this point.

Long road ahead.

I'm about an hour or so from Eustis. We still have power. We're currently getting hammered with rain, and the winds are definitely kickin', but there's no sort of storm surge to be concerned with like there is along the coast. If he's got decent drainage and his house sits a little high, he should be okay...

What does that have to do with anything?

They do not live far from the St. John's River which one of those weird bodies that flows north and is prone to flooding.

St. Johns River, Florida

St. Johns River is about 500 km long, making it the longest river in Florida. Approximately 3.5 million people live along the river and its watersheds.

I have been on the St. Johns's river and connected lakes in the Deland area, took my son bass fishing there while vacationing and visiting the in laws.

Let us know when you hear from them.

It is your typical lib deflection when they post lies. He can't help it! Mental illness is a horrible thing!

Why single out republicans?

Loved the fishing but it's kind of spooky fishing around all of those alligators.......Yikes.

The smaller ones chase your bait, one actually had my son's rubber worm in his mouth after chasing it.

"Do Not Set The Hook"!!!!!

Because Republicans will say they hate "socialism".

It's called irony.

That's cool! DeSantis voted for the bill in December BEFORE he was sworn into Congress in January? The bill passed the House in December 2012 and the Senate in 2013.
