There were waves measured by satellite at 83 ft

Just announced on the news that it is now a Category 1. Still predicting up to 36” of rain though. There will be a lot of flooding.

The eye is onshore now so the backside of the storm is still to come .....
From (way too much) experience the wind speed category is interesting to watch however we have had much more damage from a strong slow moving, wet, category one than a fast moving, dryer category three.... after having the eye pass over us we have also had more damage on the backside than the front side. The front side weakened stuff and bent trees one direction, the backside took stuff down and bent trees the other direction, breaking them ..... the full extent will not be know or the danger pass for a few days ....

Another fun note - after the storm passes be careful of all high ground - all critters, snakes, fire ants, you - all will be competing for dry places - BE ON GUARD !!

That is slow enough for even a red SS to pass

It's the wind with the rain, the shallow root systems locally, and poor drainage due to clay based soil. Lots of standing water on the roads when it rains hard. Potential for ling loss of power. Not so worried about flooding, really.
Unfortunately it looks like flooding is going to be the big issue. Slow moving and lots of rain.

@ericastar76 has already lost power. I saw a post from her on FaceBook. Hoping she stays safe, and that she stays in touch so we know she is OK.
