Default Wilma Check in

How are you all

Everyone safe ??

PLease check in and see who can help who.

I am in Torono Canada on business. May need help getting girlfriend a couple of canisters of canned propane for cooking - the green ones for camping. She only has my S and it cannot get out of LHP due to downed trees.

My S survived from what I understand unscathed and only lost the out board motor cover on sail boat and some screen damage to patio.

Thanks

I'm posting from my office, running on an emergency generator. My home is OK for the most part, lost some roof shingles, no biggie. I have no power, no phone and water pressure as of this morning is very low.

My house has some pretty bad damage. My lania was completly destroyed and parts of my roof were ripped off completly. Some of the undersides of the roof, along the sides were also ripped off. Almost all of the paint was ripped from the side of the house.

My neighbors have worse damage. Almost all of their windows are blown out and their roofs are completly off of their houses and some of their sliding glass doors were somehow pushed off their tracks and into their backyards. They also have major water damage inside their house.

All of the trees anywhere I go are blown over and that goes with all of the streetlights and traffic lights as well.

But everyone I know is ok and I haven't heard of anybody with a completly trashed house or car.

Had no power since Monday 8:10 am until today 8:40 am. Phone lines FINALLY back up and running. I had them most of the time except i lost them yesterday and just got 'em back about 5 mins ago. No real damage. The Metal roof we got in the back was starting to come apart during the cane but luckily one bolt kept it from doing so. I got pics and video.. and just glad nothing too bad.
