Slow moving. Big circulation to push more water. Stronger winds, which also push more water. All combined with a terrible approach angle.

It's everything you dread seeing.

No worries. I learned in another thread that everyone has natural gas gensets or solar panels.

He may be referring to number of households, not people. That 18.1% number would track better.

As I posted in another thread, I'm in Winter Garden which is a few miles SSW of Orlando. Just starting to get here. Heavy rains and I can hear the wind gusts but so far nothing worse than what I experienced in Lafayette when I lived there. However, the next couple of hours look to be "fun", so we'll see what that looks like. I still have power, as of now. Hopefully, the remains the case.

Customers = households and businesses, not people. That's why I specifically said 'customers'. There are over 11 million total electric utility customers in Florida.

10pm CDT; 11pm EDT advisory. Max sustained winds down to 90mph, meaning Ian is down to a category 1 hurricane.

First time in a hurricane thread? These things are always full of invaluable info. Sure there is some bs but most of it is entertaining.

Both Cape Coral and Fort Myers had serious storm surge inundation, and obviously Fort Myers beach.

Your night has only just begun, unfortunately. Ian could still be a Cat 1 when he reaches you.

True. I'm not far from Disney so would be shocked if I see any tornadoes but stranger things have happened. Next couple of hours are supposed to be the worst of it here.

The eye (or what’s left of it) is passing close by (here in Sebring). We had some severe wind and rain and now it has calmed down some. We’re expecting more wind but not as much rain as the storm passes by us.

Eh, not likely. Florida has had much stricter building codes since Andrew. Anything built in the last 30 years was designed to hold up to a storm like this. Plenty of damage, but not going be close to the biggest ever in damages

It's only just begun. Ian is currently dumping extreme rainfall just to the north of the center with Orlando dangerously close to getting into it.

But even just from surge, I'm not sure many comprehend the scale of what we'll see in the morning.
