Thanks! We had to lash the construction portalet to the house lol! ;-)
Funny thing about our house. Once completed it will be SUPER strong - 12 inch concrete walls and parapet roof - I wouldn't give this storm a second thought or any other for that matter. However, at this stage, not so strong and any gusts are not welcome!
BTW, what is the link for those great beach cam sites Kurt?
Thanks again

Your neighbor thanks you.....
In years past, we have had a river of blue coming from the construction sites after a TS or Cane....

Word of Wisdom - check for birds before taking down your hanging plants!
I almost had a heart attack after taking a nesting bird to the side of a head while storm-proofing!!!!

Tuesday. Nov.10, 2009. At 5:30 a.m. here on the eastern side of SoWal, it is only raining slightly. Was able to let the dog out with no problem. There were a few dead limbs about from my wild and native trees. Must have had a little squall come through just before I got up. Took flashlight down to look at lakefront. At this time coastal dune lake is up, but only about 7 inches. This is a lot, but not much considering the potential. Will have to see what day brings. Understand Ida hasn't landed yet. Anxious for daybreak to see the surf and how it has cut through the outfall, if at all. Local TV stations were on when I got up, but now both are off the air. CH7 and CH13 out of Panama City Beach and Panama City.

Understand Ida came ashore. Can see gulf, surf and shore now. Waves are really crashing in and rolling well onto beach. Wave after wave is entering coastal dune lake Eastern Lake. It is not raining here right now. Radar shows huge band coming in at Panama City to the east.

Thanks for the early morning report.
Could you see how far up the beach the waves are rolling? Is it hittiing or passing any dune walkovers? That Island Empress beach cam over in Pensacola does not show the surf hitting the dune plantings. Just wondering how that compares to Seagrove? Thanks again.
