Brother is in Fort Pierce, he says his house is now an island. Watched a cat fish swim around in his driveway today......freeked the dog out hahahahhaa
But so far no property damage and all safe, just wet.
He said the Walmart and surrounding business on US-1 heading towards Port St.Lucie have water and the road is way underwater, roads closed.

Here's what it looks like in Brevard County where I moved from. I talked with some friends that still live there and flooding is bad.

Holy cow, I used to live in Fort Pierce! Hard to believe the place is getting so flooded. I hope some of that rain comes our way...

my brother left wpb fl this am and is on his way home to Adamsville. . where we've had rain all morning .. light thunder too . . now its just a drizzle . .tho i'm sure that will turn into a downpour the minute i have to go out to the car at 2;30pm to go and get my niece from school.

hope everyone is enjoying the rain . .we sure needed it here in McNairy cty . .
(btw . . i just got here a mth ago from wpb fl .. ) after 13 yrs there , i had my share of watching hurricanes . . TOrnadoes are another story altogether .. dont' want to see one or hear of one nearby . . i'm living in a trailer now . .

Hey Tinman you are really getting hit! I feel for you so much!!!
I am in in FLAGLER COUNTY and we have been in the "eye" most of the day - it is just sitting there! So strange.

We got hit pretty hard last night - lots of debris around and our back yard is "squishing" but not like you all down there. But none of us are out of this yet!!!!

I think it will miss GA and TN but go on over to the pan-handle and then up through AL/MS. But who knows - this IS a GIRL ("FAY") ya know and we all can change our mind at the latest moment!! It is LAW!!

I fear it will go into the Gulf and re-organize, Watch out Tallahassee ~ Louisiana she's a heading your way..... You should be getting the wind around 21:00 tonight TeeJayMaJay as it hooks west... and the rain. Still raining here not as bad as the last 36 hours,but we still get the squalls every hour or so......
