Loading ...Yes, we were very blessed not to have suffered any damage. The folks on the bay and key a block over were devastated by the storm surge. The flooding was horrific. We were fortunate that there wasn’t a lot of rain when it passed us, but the entire gulf coast from just below us to all the way up is a mess. All surge related. People in St. Petersburg were flooded out of their homes. The multi-million-dollar homes on the key were flooded all up and down, they had the surge on both sides, from the bay and ocean.
I guess the rainfall devasted the South, Carolina and Georgia as it got much heavier when it went inland. I think the death toll was 48 at last check. These hurricanes are no joke.
