The hurricane past and we are safe

Thank you everyone who was worried.  We went to bed at 7 pm planning on the hurricane hitting at 1 or 2 am.  I had gone to bed earlier but couldn’t sleep and Ron did not check the news, so we did not know that the hurricane had sped up and moved on shore far earlier than we thought.  It hit shortly after we went to bed, but the heavy winds and rain were on the north side and we are south of the eye.  We woke at 9:30 pm by a loud bang, which was something hitting the back wall of one of our sheds that is attached to the house.  The shed is next to our bedroom/ bathroom wall and accessed from our Florida room.  That is the large long room that is under the carport off our kitchen.  The wall held but from then we were up.  That is when we realized that the storm had passed and we are now getting the back wind.  That wind is intense and gusts have been hurricane strength.   They are warning that with the tide coming in we might get more storm surge but we did not get a lot of storm surge so the only flooding we took is from the rain.  We are safe and well.  Thank you for everyone who was worried.  There will be debris clean up in the morning and a house inspection.  But the roof held, no leaks and the windows are all boarded up so no breakage.  Hugs.  Scottie
