Hurricane Irma Update 9

Our internet seems to be officially not working anymore. Our power keeps going off and on. It's not likely we'll have power much longer. I'm now posting via my phone using data. Updates will be short from now on. We're still safe at home.

Love and peace,

Lisha and Kyle

Hurricane Irma Update 10

We're all back to normal now (except our phones seems to be having some minor issues, so I'm not sure if that's hurricane related or not... probably a bit). We got internet last night. Too tired to post anything. We finished the majority of our yard work and outside work yesterday, in the heat of the sun. We lost power for only 22 hours (5:30pm Sunday to 3:30pm Monday), so that was nice ðŸ˜Š Water has been working the entire time, but it may not be safe to drink, which is fine. We still have tons of water, and we have a really good water filter and we can also boil water if we need to. We were lucky.

Melbourne has more flooding. I think the very worst damage was actually caused by tornadoes. Old gas stations seemed to get very bad damage. New gas stations are all fancy so they...

Hurricane Irma Update 7

Our power is now flickering some of the time. It is very dark, so we have our lights on and the lights were flickering when the strong winds came. Our power held up... for now. So it's very likely we will lose power at some point. We sometimes lose power in normal storms, so I would not be surprised if we lost power in this storm. Here's some footage I took at about 11:40am (at about 0:44 seconds I have to move back from the screen because a large gust of wind came blowing in a bunch of rain, etc): And another video about a minute later: Very windy gusts, misty rain flying everywhere (as I said before, videos don't really do it justice). Our backyard has a nice lake in it now (which we've experienced before). The weather feels very cool, colder outside than inside (usually it's cooler inside because air conditioning). It has calmed down now. The conditions change moment by moment. Here's another video I took at 12:00pm in our front yard: ...
