                             Just passing through

During the first half of the storm:

[Thar she blows!] [1] [2] [What a blowhard] [3] [4]

Our biggest problem durring the first half of the storm were leaks around a
few windows—one upstairs and one in the master bedroom. Other than that,
nothing horrible happened to the house.

Durring the eye of the hurricane (yes yes, I know, we're not supposed to
leave the house durring the eye):

[This was chopped and removed less than an hour after the hurricane] [5] [6]
[Palm trees normally survive hurricanes] [7] [8]

And here's the bamboo in our backyard durring the eye of the storm:

[Bamboo before] [9] [10]

And after the second half of the storm:

[Bamboo after] [11] [12]

There aren't any pictures durring the second half of the storm since I
elected at that point to just sleep through the rest. As it happened, the
second half had less rain but the wind kicked it up a notch [13] and more
damage happened during the second half than the first, with Boca Raton (where
I work) getting ravaged:

[This car (not mine) certainly got kicked] [14] [15] [Without traffic lights,
how will civilization survive?] [16] [17] [Slalom course along Congress Ave]
[18] [19] [Devestation at the Office I] [20] [21] [Devestation at the Office
II] [22] [23] [Devestation at the Office III] [24] [25]

So that's just a little bit of what we went through.

And the season's not over yet (Storm Beta) [26]!
