UPDATE: WILMA!!!
The rain started at 2am but Wilma didnt show up till about 6am. We've been getting a lot of rain but we have had worse rain falls during rainy season then how it's raining now. No thunder and lightening. It's very windy. I've peaked outside and everything looks intact. Nothing seems to have fallen or rolled down the block. We are safe inside the house and just waiting it out. Wilma should be gone by tonight. I feel like it's 3am though because with all the shutters up it is so dark inside.

Re: UPDATE: WILMA!!!
I just saw what West Palm looks like on TV - 
Apparently there is no power and flooding is becoming a problem. 
Stay safe!

Re: UPDATE: WILMA!!!
I have family in West Palm. So far I havent heard anything about them. West Palm is on the east coast. Naples and lower on the west coast and across the southern tip of FL is getting the worst of it. It is a Cat 3 but it's suppose to be moving fast.

yes, the weather channel guy said they expect it to cross the E Coast around 11, so they don't even have the worst of it yet.

Re: UPDATE: WILMA!!!
Now it's just windy. So far the only "damage" if you want to refer to it as that is my stone by my tree fell down. I just have to dig a little trench and put some sand behind it to hold it up.

Re: UPDATE: WILMA!!!
I just spoke to my grandparents in Delray Beach and they had no power and some trees uprooted. Then my mom called them and while she was on the phone with them one of their big windows blew in
I'm so nervous, they are in their mid eighties

I'm glad you're safe! My friends are in Naples and I've been worrying about them.

Re: UPDATE: WILMA!!!
I just went outside. It is so windy and cold. Rain is all gone. Sun is peaking through the clouds. It's just incredably windy. The only thing I can really see is their is a huge puddle on the corner but that happens everytime it rains and the porta potties down the block where the construction is fell down.
Lisa I pray your grandparents stay safe and the broken window be the only damage they get.

Re: UPDATE: WILMA!!!
Thanks girls
My grandmother said a license plate broke their window! It ripped off a car in their complex and flew through their window!
My parents have a house there too, but they came back this weekend when they heard about the hurricane. They begged my grandparents to come with them, but they wouldn't

Re: UPDATE: WILMA!!!
Just spoke to my SIL in Boynton Beach she said that she lost some screans around her pool. People are losing their their fences. She saw a trampolene (SP) get picked up and get thrown into the canal. She saw peoples tires get picked up off the ground. she also said mikes grandparents (in Boca) got a hole in their window somehow. And water is coming in.

Re: UPDATE: WILMA!!!
Glad you're ok. My cousins in Boca got flooded and had to evacuate. My other cousins lost their screened room behind the house and they all lost power but are ok.
My dad in Melbourne just got power back an hour ago and he said it is very windy, their lake behind the house has grown. He also said there was a lot of furniture flying around from dummy heads that didn't put it away, and he had a small tree fall over on the side of the house. But he is ok. He also said there were a lot of tornados hitting by him. Thankfully he said it is dying down. Stay safe!!

Re: UPDATE: WILMA!!!
Hubby and I went for a walk down our block and their were no trees down or any damage. The absolute scariest thing is their was an empty gatoraide bottle still standing on top of a dumpster by one of the houses being built. The wind did not knock it over and it was very windy 
We took off all the shutters and worked in the garden a little.
It's really cool now and it's suppose to be like that all week
