Quote HistoryQuoted: It’s fucked up. A normal level flight attitude (at least in an airliner) is 2-4 degrees nose up. 15 deg. is a take off pitch attitude (again in a jet airliner, in a Herc or Orion turboprop, that’s a hell of a nose up pitch). Having the nose that far up while still sinking is NOT a good feeling. TC Wow.... Didn't realize. 15 degrees doesn't seem like much when I'm sitting here in the office and have zero reference or how flight happens. |

TC Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Allegent has brought a good sized chunk of their fleet up to CVG, they're parked on the pad that used to be Comair's Concourse C. Yep. That terminal isn’t the most robust. Hope all the ground equipment and little airplanes are tied down! TC Hopefully that old DC-3/C-47 doesn't get turned into a boat. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: The air was moving down faster than the aircraft could climb. It’s called wind shear and for obvious reasons is very dangerous. They were going down in altitude and had no control over it. “Uncommanded descent”. Heard an AirTran 737 call that on a particularly shitty day out by DIW one day. They tried to go to FL410 to get out of the turbulence. Didn’t work. TC |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Still have power in S. Fort Myers. Wind is really picking up. I can see three downed palms on my street so far. Non organic debris also blowing around. Valuables and important items are water tight and Truck is all packed up and ready to move inland in case major of flooding. Meanwhile, at my AL house: https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/66797/548D9D00-2C72-455E-A5D1-27148641090C-2542602.png The wind must be rough there. The wall on the right side of the frame is curved hugely. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Downdrafts. Know when it gets a little bumpy on a commercial flight? They hit a bump that cost them 1200' of altitude. Giant brass balls on those pilots. If they were flying at 8000 feet, would that be the same as a commercial airliner flying at 35,000 feet suddenly losing 5,300 feet of altitude? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Anybody that stayed should break out a rosary at this point. The weight and speed of the water combined with the wind is going to destroy a whole lot of things. I wouldn't feel safe even in mid rise. A rosery won't help them now. Sanibel is taking a direct hit from a CAT 4 verging on CAT 5. That's, more than likely, not survivable. Just incredibly sad and heart wrenching. Thinking about what going on inside them as I type this... chills me. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Agreed, and you will not hear me complaining! Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Nothing like watching the water take out your house in real time  I'm one of 600 full time Sanibel residents, and that place and the people mean a lot to me. I'm dreading the video and photos later today, and hope the people I know that stayed are okay. It's small consolation, but at least you can be thankful you had your own self-contained bugout boat to fall back to. At the end of the day, it's the skin of you and yours that matters most of all. Agreed, and you will not hear me complaining! I'm at like 8 feet of elevation. The street is considerably less (maybe 4'?). I'm one block from a huge salt water canal that is a few minutes from the Myakka River. It sucks watching this thing go directly over my house but...live to fight another day !!!! I just hope all my dumbass neighbors end up o.k. when this is all said and done.... |

Just walked down the driveway to survey the house and neighbors' houses.
It was tough to walk through the wind. There were a few times the gusts knocked me backwards. This is feeling like it's the strongest storm coming through this area in the 25 years I've been here. 80mph gusts SRQ. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: The storm surge projections are now from ground (not water), so if they say we're getting 8' of storm surge that's meaningful. My ground level floor is ground level. The house has a series of stairs that basically make it a 3 story split-level. This is the view from our entry door at ground level: https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/4267/65522.JPG Our inlaw suite and my office are about 4' above ground. The main floor is probably 9' and the top story of course is around 18'. I'm guessing the ground level is underwater and perhaps the lower living area. That's significant. Sorry. |

We were out for a week in the Bluffs from Irma. Only person happy is my son who is a rookie lineman. Chainsaws and line crews are the most valuable things post-storm. Praying hard for everyone south of here.

I have one of those sun shade tarps. Two corners connect to my house and the other two connect to cemented in 4x4s. I removed the corners from the poles and ran big screw style stakes into the ground at the edge of my patio and connected the corners to them. It's now an angled tarp protecting my sliding glass doors from flying debris |
