I was beginning to wonder since you hadn't posted since this morning. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BillOh Posted October 7, 2016 #229 Share Posted October 7, 2016 The port web cam is up and was scanning around surveying the damage. I'm going to guess in the future, if time allows, Fishlips will take down the tarp roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The4Cruisers Posted October 8, 2016 #232 Share Posted October 8, 2016 A tug boat and another boat broke loose and crashed into the dock at Grills. Unknown on possible damage. Two tugs that were apparently moored at Fishlips broke loose and wound up against the deck at Grills. There is video of this and the surrounding business area posted on the Fishlips FB page.

Ander026 Posted October 8, 2016 #234 Share Posted October 8, 2016 According to the news, the Port is still closed. Majesty is currently docked in Ft Lauderdale. Disney is not there and may be waiting for the Port to open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reallyitsmema Posted October 8, 2016 #236 Share Posted October 8, 2016 I'm enjoying CC while I still have electricity- I might not be back for a while:) Hope you made it through the storm okay.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emeraldcity Posted October 8, 2016 #237 Share Posted October 8, 2016 She's doing her best, clinging to mommy. I might take her out once the wind shifts to north. no elevator though. :eek: Tuned off to prevent damage from power surges. Weather cam still up, the real test will be once south winds hit it. https://map.bloomsky.com/weather-stations/eaB1rJytnpS4n5Wk Glad you made it through OK. I've been lurking on this thread since it started and I wondered all day yesterday how things would go for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreadpirate3 Posted October 8, 2016 #239 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Not much to update. Orlando weathered the storm pretty well, but there are areas without water and power. I know that Cocoa Beach has a sewage backup issue, Flagler has major damage on A1A, and Ormond Beach has a water main break. 300,000 people lost power in Central Florida, historic Flagler College has major flooding, St Augustine has flooding, Altamonte Springs has flooding.

Biker19 Posted October 8, 2016 #241 Share Posted October 8, 2016 The Coast Guard just came in with 2 tug boats. A sign the port is about to open? The Disney Dream is approaching the port so I assume they'll be let in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retired LEO Posted October 8, 2016 #244 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Only seeing one person from Florida checking in today. I see on the news over 1 million people have no electricity. Hope everyone is safe. I've spent the morning taking pictures of the damage and filing my insurance claim. We've been without power and on generator since yesterday morning. Power should be restored to our area by late tomorrow night. It might be a little longer in my case. My next door neighbors pine tree is laying across the power lines so that tree has to be removed before power's restored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EuroDate20 Posted October 8, 2016 #249 Share Posted October 8, 2016 I hope for the best for these people. My family was in a similar situation with Hurricane Charlie. We were on board the Disney Magic, docking in Port Canaveral. They shuttled us to the airport, only to find thousands of people stuck there because flights were cancelled until the following day. It was chaos! I called around and found a hotel that could accommodate us. Many hotels did not have power. During the cab ride to the hotel, we saw some destruction - billboards torn apart, trees down, lots of large debris in the streets, and some flooding. We stayed two nights before being able to fly home. It was not fun. Sent from my SM-N920V using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
