10-16-99 - The rain was light to
moderate, but driven by winds that gusted to 70mph. There were downed
trees and power lines,but we did not have any power outages in our
area that I know of. We did not see and tornadoes or water spouts. Our
average winds were 40-50mph, and flooding to our area was minor. At
the time the pictures were taken in St. Augustine, it was low tide, so
I did not see or was able to photograph any tidal flooding that is so
common to the downtown area during storms. The beach areas were very
sparse and closed due to Hurricane Floyd's erosion, and from what I
could see, Irene was causing trouble too. Sarah Jarman Forgot to tell
you that our total rainfall from hurricane Irene was 3 & 1/2".
