It came in about 20 miles north of where I was yesterday. We probably got some flooding at our property.
Here in Jacksonville it's a little windy now and light rain off and on - sounds like niel is getting it worse than we are right now.
The sun is trying to come out now. Don't think that will last???

I was pleasantly surprised to see that it suddenly weakened before starting landfall instead of reaching hurricane status. In spite of the inconvenience of power outages and flooding, this is the type of scenario that every firefighter in Florida was hoping for. When it exits into the Atlantic it will regain some of it's strength and follow the coastline north. Even as it moves into the cooler waters of the North Atlantic and becomes a remnant low, the potential for major damage is high in New England. Due to the recent storms and flooding, there isn't room for another drop of water up there. Boston certainly isn't looking forward to meeting the remnants of Alberto later this week.
If Murphy's law is correct, everything East of the San Andreas Fault will slide into the Atlantic
