   Prayers for our friends in the Florida panhandle. Our North Florida MGNOC Rep, Jim DeGregoria and his riding pal Paul Buhac live in Panama City, right near the center of the storm. I hope they, and all the other Guzzi riders in the Panhandle evacuated.

Thanks...it looks like a war zone over there, it missed us by about 75 miles to the east and that was all the difference between relief and misery.

Really strange storm by the time it reached the GA/SC border.  Not much weather in front or behind it and it didn't take too long to get out of here.  We've got trees and limbs but nothing compared to what's coming out of the big bend.  Prayers to all.

Came through the Piedmont, central NC, this afternoon. Dumped 5" of rain in 3 hours. We had power outage for 6 hours, trees down, ditches washed out in my driveway and water in my basement. However very blessed as my house is still standing unlike some poor folks in Fl.

I'm in Spartanburg, sort of between previous sc & nc  posters.  We had at least 4 1/2" of rain here and creek down back flooded more than it has for over a decade. Crazy rain around 5am.  By noon it was done and by late afternoon it was clear, sunny and actually pretty nice.  you would have never known it was a legit monster hurricane.  Cannot imagine being in FL where it hit.  We are praying for people there.

weather like this is probably going to be the new normal....

The storm photos I’ve seen have been amazing to a mid westerner. I’ll take our tornados any day.

power outage for only 6 hours? You're lucky.
This year has been the worst I've seen for storms.

Saw before and after pics today from where it made landfall.  Good grief.  The folks got hammered.
Soon enough we'll have snow-thank goodness it's not like those storms that hit FL and the east coast.
