Still have power and it seems I'm one of the lucky ones. The local EMC is reporting 18,000+ without power just in my county. A total of 33,500 are without power in the entire service area (primarily central and west-central Georgia). No major damage to report, just plenty of limbs and branches to clean up once everything clears out. Gusts of 50 mph+ have occurred over the past several hours, but it looks like the worst of it should clear our area in the next 90 minutes or so.
The analysis and comments have truly been helpful as Irma made her way across the Atlantic. Thanks to the mods, mets, and everyone who contributes valuable information year-round to help us prepare for events like this.
