ANOTHER FRIGGIN HURRICANE: Pics and videos at ground zero...

[2Stater]

I heard from my BIL in Virginia (between Richmond and Charlottesville).  They had 6" of rain LAST NIGHT.  Lots of flooding there.
POWER OUTAGES:
Alabama Power = 12,500
North Carolina = 450,000
Virginia = 490,000

Reports say we had 6+ inches here yesterday. The I-85/I-385 interchange was under water yesterday. Lots of local flooding, but everything is pretty much back to normal today.

Glad to here your buddy's house is ok, Chech, even though it may be quite some time before they can get back to see it.

He's really worried about mildew.  He bought storm shutters for it, and his neighbor closed them for him before the storm.  But he doesn't know how much water got inside, etc.
 

That's the unavoidable thing about hurricanes; water is likely to get in, and if so, mildew is inevitable. In his situation especially, because his area is not accessible for the air mover people to get in and start the process.

It will only get worse as the search and rescue continues.

Here's the story on SEARCH and RESCUE:

I was watching Weather Channel today.  They said the FEMA S&R guys have finished in Mexico Beach, working every house and using dogs in the rubble.  They didn't talk to reporters, but reporters said after that the storm surge receded suddenly, carrying some debris out with it.  Speculation was that bodies were carried out too.  

Reporters said there are only a few cases where they know people were in houses that were destroyed, and those people haven't been found.  Possible they left during the storm and made it to safe houses, but it's unknown.

S&R has moved east to Port St Joe today.

True. When I was with the LCSD in Tennessee, we had to check on a man who had not been heard from in a few days. We went to his mobile home with no AC in the middle of the summer. He was dead in his bed and had been for days. You can imagine the smell. Something I will never forget.

Where Chech? Mexico Beach?

That was the implication.  Certainly one was there, because they said they're searching for the companion of the person found.  They were in the same house before the storm.
