Well, the fun is about to begin; about 12 hours to landfall. I will try to take some pictures as time goes on...right now the clouds are starting to roll in as the leading edge of the storm arrives. The wind has been blowing most of the day and is picking up now...probably about 30kts over the water, maybe 10 here with gusts up to 20+.
We're predicted to see sustained winds between 60 and 70kts and tidal surge of up to 20ft. I checked the GPS and I am at about 150 ft, plus the height of the apartment, so other than rats seeking higher ground it should be nice and dry up here.
Some good pics here:
