Even though the beachfront at St. Augustine Beach, at it's peak, just had intermittent waves splashing over the seawall.
I wouldn't have thought that the city would be that much more prone to flooding than the oceanfront condos, etc, but with every major storm that proves to be the case.

They are going to secure the house as best they can, and pack their things up and camp out with family in New England for a bit. He's estimating it will take at least a month before the house will be livable again.

If he's back in a month then he's really lucky. I guess water didn't get *inside* the house?
Glad to hear. Looks like you’re eating quite well, too. Stay safe.
Last evenings meal, cooked on the MiniMax again. Wrapped a potato tightly in AF with no additions. Found this chunk of beef at the top of the freezer. Loaded it up with lots of Sweet and Smokey Rib Rub from Wassi's meat market and let it rest while the egg came up to temperature.
Egg temp went up way too high but it didn't hurt anything, a little more well done at the ends than I wanted but better in the middle.
But that potato was just wonderful after I removed the AF, split it open and added butter, salt and pepper. And yes, I did have a cold beer with the meal that I ate outside in the cool evening with no bugs.

This community was built with low eco-impact, and weather vulnerability, in mind. It is located ~37' above sea level, all power lines were buried, erosion-resistant native vegetation was used, building codes beefed up to handle hurricanes, and 100% solar powered.
BR took a direct hit from Ian, although they're (iirc) 35 miles inland. One of the founders interviewed had ridden out the storm at home; the next morning he drove around the community and found a few downed trees, and some missing roof tiles, otherwise, nothing! Even the huge solar array field they had lost not a single panel (which I found hard to believe).
They also discussed some of the insurance issues in Florida. Folks need both wind, and flood, insurance (which sounds pretty damn convenient for deniability for the ins companies); their rates had been skyrocketing over the past few years; many major insurers are simply leaving FL; and only 18% of all Floridians can even afford to carry flood insurance. I'll save any further comments on that for the "Off-Topic" section...
These stories will probably be available on CBSNews.com tomorrow, I'll post a link.
