Checking in from Eastern NC. Woke up and can’t get back to sleep. Miraculously I still have power. Flo is howling and local news is saying the eye is currently making landfall around Snead’s Ferry. Lots of reports of flooding, which was expected. I saw the report about the people needing rescue in New Bern. Scary stuff. I can’t imagine being on the waterfront for this storm.
There are 1500 out-of-state first responders stationed in my town ready and waiting to do their thing...God bless them! They cannot go out if winds are over 45 mph. My local emergency management department is doing a great job of keeping people informed.
So ready for daylight! A tree fell several hours ago and nearly gave me a heart attack lol. Had to give the cat his “special” treat to calm his nerves and now I’m wondering if they work for people too.
