Wow - looks like Naples got smacked.

Hope NYOB is ok.

Didn't he bailout and head over to the East Coast?

Yup. Choosing to got there was not one of my brightest moments. The damn
eye passed right over my head about 11:30am. Wind gusts were up to 90
knots, even on the East Coast. Trees were down, and power was out. Water
pressure in the hotel went so low that we couldn't flush a toilet...so I
left when the worst of the trailing edge of the storm had passed.
