Has it even made landfall yet in SC?

I'm guessing we can't start making repairs until we engage the insurance company, right? Sucks because we this place rented out for a while and will lose a lot of revenue
Submit your claim as soon as possible and start collecting bids. If they won’t provide you a bid, a license, and a W-9, move on.
DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING.
Regarding revenue, you’re going to be fine. Since substantial damage likely to most places your renters leading to choosing your place, I’d almost contact each of them with reservations for the next few months and give them an out of free cancellation. From there, you can likely capitalize on this temporary market and rent at substantially higher rate to contractors and other repair workers looking for lodging.

We have a home on Topsail beach I am a bit concerned about but neighbors are looking after it and say it should be fine.
Keep us updated. I am supposed to go to Surf City tomorrow and some of the group are really freaking out. I kmow the drive is going to suck, but I figure once we get there Saturday afternoon it should all be good.

HWRF forecast for 11 AM EDT
HWRF has been pretty accurate about the short-term precipitation with Ian. That main band (partial eye wall) will have the worst wind and heaviest rain.
Good luck and stay safe to all those in the Carolinas.
Falling trees are probably the biggest threat for those that are not right along the coast in the surge-prone areas.
Make sure to get to an area of your home that is least likely to have a tree fall on it if you have big trees that are close.

For those asking the other day about the satellite imagery. NOAA has put up the first high definition images post-Ian and said they will be updating it as they get more and more images ready.

Checking in from Plant City. Long and scary night, were without power at 4:30 Wednesday afternoon and are still waiting for it, optimistic on getting it back soon.
The mobile network around here has been overloaded and we are just now able to read about the destruction down south. So horrible. Prayers up to all affected.

I don’t know why we lost power almost a full day after the storm.
I have been told by Entergy (here in Louisiana) depending on the situation of storm damage, they will shut off power to an area for safety reasons while they repair damaged substations, lines, etc. as to not overload adjacent power grids that are damaged. Once repairs are complete they turn power back on.

Glad you are okay.
If you haven't already found out about your power restoration, go to this link and find your power provider's website for an outage map and projected restoration times.
The total number of Florida customers out has just dropped below 2 million. It peaked around 2.6 million.

If you or anyone near me do not have power or a generator, let me know. I have one and gas for it.

Nah, those first images prove that new and better building codes absolutely matter and they make a world of difference. If you told me, without my knowing, that those Punta Gorda images were two days after a Category 4 hurricane I wouldn't believe you.

Not to be that guy, but nothing prohibited them from buying it either.

Those yards are nuts. I've never seen so many trees clustered like that

Definitely can. Save all receipts too. Just be sure whatever company that is used writes "hurricane repairs" somewhere on their bill. We had to go ahead and get moving on multiple things at our house 2 years ago several weeks before an adjuster was even able to come.
best of luck!

Even that damage can be mitigated with building and design choices, though, to the extent that the home is salvageable.

Go there every July, it seems that area handles the tropical systems better than most. Damage from the last couple systems to go through there was much less than I expected. The guy planting Sea Oates in 95 degree weather on our dune this year is gonna be pissed though.
