The wind is starting to gust and howl but thankfully SE Florida will be not be getting the brunt of the storm.

Nothing much to report yet from Key West. Per Hyatt- all their resorts are in the process of opening this morning.. Also- the Galleon reports they will start accepting guests at 11 am today..

Ft Myers, Sanibel, Marco ect most likely won't have any reports until tomorrow.. I talked to the owner of a Bed and Breakfast in Marco and she simply reported slight flooding due to the large amounts of rain- and currently the power is out as a nearby transformer blew- but other than that not really much different from a normal thunderstorm in her opinion... Good news for now!

I'm not concerned. It doesn't appear to be like Charley, et al.

Per the resort today- no water damage to the villas- minor landscaping issues only- but much of the surrounding area is still dealing with flooding issues..

No damage to report to the villas.. Echoed the possible impact on guests with flooding in the surrounding areas.
