That's true. I was stranded in Savannah Georgia during a hurricane. Hotels were closed, planes were grounded. Shuttle busses were available everywhere, with frequent pick-ups all day. We were taken to an arena. Everyone lined up to give their name, very organized, then assigned a bus that took them to Augusta. Many people that lined up appeared to be low income.
I got it too, but the missing adult has been located already.
...HELENE MAKES LANDFALL IN THE FLORIDA BIG BEND...
Is the storm over, it broke up before landfall, or it's the eye of the storm and worse is yet to come in the form of tornados?
It’s still incredibly powerful, moving into Georgia. Last update from 17 minutes ago:
I live 3-4 hours inland from you and it's been raining here nonstop for over 24 hours, but the wind isn't too bad. My dogs also refuse to pee until they can't hold it anymore. Our power has gone out 4 times this morning for about 30 seconds each time. Hopefully this is the worst of it here. My parents were in Cedar Key but evacuated on Thursday. They said the sheriff's department came around door to door on Thursday and said everyone had to be off the island by 4:00, not optional.
My brother and his family live in Statesboro, GA (not too far from Savannah). They lost power around 2 AM and trees have fallen in their neighborhood blocking them in. And the basketball goal fell on my sister-in-law’s car.
Glad to hear you are ok and thanks for the photos!!!
