She either has to evacuate 200 kids tonight or do a evac in place type. They said they'll be staying on the island and don't expect it to be too bad. I hate it for ya'll would would absolutely be thrilled if it held its rain and dropped it on me. If any of ya'll down that way need anything don't hesitate, I got beds and room.

I hope they are OK but the weather man is giving us a chance for rain for the next few days off edwardo, And after 9 days of 102 to 108* temps, we would "KILL" for rain and temp relief!

Talked to the wife, she said only rain, not much wind.

Nothing worse than an average thunderstorm so far.

Re: TS Edouard, what ya doing LF

Thanks y'all.

I spent much of the day prepping the staff and children to shelter-in-place, there was no need to evacuate. At home, we took the usual precautions and battoned down the hatches and stayed. Right now the winds are not much above 40 mph and we are getting quite a bit of rain but we were spared from the brunt of the storm.

Traffic coming in to work today was basically non-existent and I'm sitting here at work and not another soul has come in yet. LOL In fact the front of the building is still boarded up. There is a little minor street flooding and our tides never reached the level expected.

It was a welcome sight this morning to see that we were spared the effects of the storm with the exception of some much needed rain. Having it come ashore east of us is always the best case scenario since it usually has the least amount of wind and rain.

Most of this should be over with in a few hours and things can get back to normal. If nothing else, going through the preparations to shelter-in-place is always a good exercise since it will better prepare us for future events.

I am sure the local media will be devistated by the lack of carnage. I can see it now, there will be 10 TV trucks surrounding the one tree that fell over.

I guess they planned on a heavy TS event for the day for their programming and have nothing else to do. They are playing up 25-40 MPH winds and rain and holding up dead palm frawns (flying projectiles, in their words) LOLOLOLOLOL.
