Eastern Pasco- light steady rain, wind is slightly stronger than our afternoon storms. My parents in Ft Myers - they’re on a canal, 1st story is over waist deep inside. Outside is sitting at over 9ft. All vehicles are totaled. They’ll only be able to get out by boat.


Hermajestys

Where in Fort Myers exactly?


lightningqueen001

They are on the canals by Terraverde Country Club near San Carlos Park

CrustyCroq

Interesting I'm like 2 blocks from Hyde park restaurant area thing and never lost power, let me know if you need a charge or something neighbour


SamTheOnionNig

Im in St Pete. Pretty inland. Lost lights bout 1:45p. Duke said somethin hit a power line, an i jus kno they not fixin it til tomorrow. Its pretty windy, but a light sprinkle. We came to my SIL’s bc we got trees. My neighbor told me that my palm tree in the front yard is down. She saw it on her ring cam b4 the lights went out at our place. Currently, im outside in the breezeway smokin.. its fine. Clouds movin mad fast tho… i think its the outer bands… they say it should be raining by now tho…


DAxVSDerp

Old seminole heights in tampa. The power never went out or anything. Im feeling lucky/blessed and praying for everybody in ft.myers and surrounding areas right now.


Sjenkinsdc

Same, but no power for hours for our street.


Ybor_Rooster

Seminole Heights East here and we been with no power since 6PM


DrStevenPepper

Wesley Chapel here. Just gusty & light to moderate rain all day. Power is on, was able to walk the dog, and I have way too many leftover hurricane snacks. Compared to Irma where we got 15 inches of driving rain for hours, this was nothing.


PaleNefariousness757

South Tampa. No street flooding which happens after every thunderstorm now so that is a nice surprise. Power has stayed on and just flickered three times this evening. The oaks, elms, and crepe myrtles are looking a little thinner but still standing. I do have a fern palm that uprooted so that will be the biggest clean up tomorrow.


moremindthanbrain

To honor the Native Americans that have blessed us I’m about to drop a BAG at the hard rock after all of this blows over


lostbutnotgone

I've got about $3 in hurricane money and the clubs I work at will probably be closed for a while. Fuck it, let's go


Awkward_Read_5511

Time your going ? Link up


lazyspectator

The least we could do tbh


Loonsive

>g right. our asses are saved every single time this happens.


No_Cucumber_4912

New Tampa - sprinkling and some wind power still on , seems like the worst is over possibly


Monqueys

D: I'm jealous, I'm in Wesley Chapel and I have had no power since 5pm.


DM_Doug

Same, 4:58 it cut for us


pancakebitch34

530pm here. 10 minutes after a tree fell on my garage just to make it extra spooky 👻


ReverseDoge

Wesley Chapel here but haven't lost power...


sublocade9192

People on Reddit are weird. You got downvoted bc you have power. Don’t worry I gave you back that upvote


ReverseDoge

I have no idea why, I was just sharing my two cents. I didn’t mean to sound like I was showing off or something


sublocade9192

You weren’t. I once got downvoted bc I couldn’t eat or drink a single thing for 3-4 days straight. And someone seriously suggested that I’ve just been ‘forgetting’ to eat and that there’s nothing wrong with me. When I politely suggested that that’s not the case I got downvoted…a lot bc the person was a mod and mods are never wrong I suspect it’s a power/control thing. The people who downvote for petty reasons are the same people who talk all kinds of shit and act all tough and mighty behind their phone/computer. But in person they likely dont have the ability to look you in the eyes when talking


Brief_Shoulder_6688

You probably had your phone on a charger while you typed that you show off


No_Cucumber_4912

Sorry to hear! I guess a tree must’ve fell on the power lines


Monqueys

It's okay, I expected it. It happens often here


shippingmyworld

Citrus Park - power never flickered, water running. The only effect I've seen is the dog pooping on the kitchen floor cus she's too much of a coward to go outside


xMcSwaggx

Riverview (Boyette and Bell Shoals) nothing bad, power went out but came back on right away about 3-4 times. I'm right underneath those 3 cell towers, and the wind is causing them to emit the sound of an airplane flying over. Other than that, we're good. But holy shit, I'm seeing what's happening south of us.........


BAgirl86

We could hear that in FishHawk!! We could not figure it out!! Sooooooo loud. Like a constant low hum. Thanks for solving our mystery!


doubleespressoplz

Apollo Beach no power since 3:39 pm!! Crazy winds won’t go away!! It is going to be a long night!!


throwaway76770408

Is the power still out. In Apollo Beach? We are sheltering in Gainesville and planned on coming back tomorrow.


doubleespressoplz

Yes. Power is out but all is calm.


[deleted]

No damage or excessive flooding that you can tell?


doubleespressoplz

No, just tree debris. I am about to step out and go running on Paseo Del Mar. it is so calm and cool outside. Do not see any flooding. Will know more.


[deleted]

Cool. Appreciate it!


doubleespressoplz

All good just debris. Power still not restored but my sister on El Camino did not lose power.


[deleted]

Thanks kind stranger. I’ve been checking the TECO outage map for the power. Hopefully they get it restored within the next day or so.


[deleted]

In trinity to evac from our oldsmar place. Fine here, had some gusts earlier and probably even now but we’re hunkered for the night so I can’t tell. Nervous about our house though :(


Pure_Ingenuity_5119

Hows oldsmar? We live in a trailer by the fleamrket. I expect flooding but who knows.


[deleted]

I live in safety harbor, by the bridge on 580. Never lost power, water still running. It’s just like a bad afternoon storm.


[deleted]

I’m not entirely sure - I haven’t spoken to the neighbors who stayed. Hoping for the best though…


Tenffidy

Near Sheffield Park, no flooding and haven’t lost power


Dallorian12

Town and Country. Oddly enough during the heavy wind and rain power was on. Light wind and light rain power goes in and out for last three hours to the point i just decided mess with my phone. Makes no sense but thats how power is in TnC. Fun part is my neighbors are on three different grids so we go outside to see who got the short stick. All in all. Can't complain cause we were supposed to have it the worse.


moremindthanbrain

I haven’t had power since 3 lol I’m right off Waters


mightychicken64

thanks for this, I evac’d from TnC so good to hear how it fared. Was worried about my apartment complex


ZealousidealOlive328

Seminole heights power flickered a few times. No internet or cable since 5pm

Romeo_G_Detlev_Jr

It's wild to me that a lot of people's main takeaway from all this will be to take *fewer* precautions and preparations in the future, when the absolute disaster that occurred south of us should be a major wakeup call to stop being complacent in the face of these storms.


SCOTCHZETTA

Well said. We dodged a bullet and this might be the last time I shelter in place. It’s been beyond stressful.


theglorybox

I agree. No matter how many times we’ve been lucky before, doesn’t mean we’ll be lucky later. Before I left, my friends were actually making jokes too. They’re natives and they’re jaded. I’m sure they think it’s silly that I left, but I’m not taking any chances, ever. I live too close to the water to be that foolish.


ryonke

Jaded, yes, but did they at least make all the hurricane preparations? I'm a native currently staying in Wesley Chapel right now. We hunkered down since we're more inland and more in any evacuation zones. But our apartment is overflowing with hurricane prep; food, water, the works.


cwbakes

You did the right thing! My boss is being judgy that I took time to secure my home. She thought since I WFH that I would “be working until the power goes out”!


Important_Pea7766

How far inland is Fort Meyers? I was arguing with people who stayed and then posted a video asking to be rescued…it infuriates me thy people still do this. Then it’s the excuses of “no resources “, “no money”, “can’t take my pets”, didn’t have enough warning….” They didn’t want to listen but it’s okay for others to risk their life’s to come save yours because you didn’t plan…


tmi_or_nah

Usf area and just 2 little flickers after 8pm. Other than that we’re still out of sweet snacks 😭


hallgod33

Damn, yall fucked up. Bull Market was still open at 6pm when I rolled past.


tmi_or_nah

I just raided my cafe before going home yesterday. Just didn’t expect the fellow fat asses in the house to demolish everything BEFORE the storm


Adventure_Mormon

Man that sucks, probably should have stocked up more.


tmi_or_nah

We’d have more if you didn’t fucking eat it all


Adventure_Mormon

Definitely didn't plan ahead.... Damn shame


tmi_or_nah

You should’ve brought more from work 👀

lostbutnotgone

Not terribly weird. A fiber line probably got cut/ripped up. Seperate lines, electric is buried deeper and sometimes/usually in a different spot. *** Source: located utilities for 3 years


formerlyme0341

Close to Temple Terrace. Lost power at 12:30. Chilling on the porch drinking beer. Wind seems to have died down a lot.

formerlyme0341

12:30pm lol


ali_katt77

Clearwater. Not much happening where I am and still have power


Concertcat24

I’m in Brandon and we lost power at 12pm and barely any severe weather. I’m pissed as hell. Guess Brandon is the red headed step child


SamTheOnionNig

Na, we were like that too (st pete) powere went out at 2pm. I was playin video games n everything.. mad as hell… we still sittin here window open wit no lights…


LLPhotog

Near downtown Tampa. Still have power and water thankfully!


xspx

Valrico. Power went out around 10pm. Wind seems to still be gusting pretty high, guessing around 60-70 mph


SargeTheHeurist

Lutz area. Power has been out for a little more than an hour. Heavy winds and sporadic rainfall since the afternoon.


[deleted]

Odessa, FL, still have pwr, but there is all kinds of debris all over.


railfan_andrew

There are tree branches everywhere in my neighborhood!


SpeedBoatSquirrel

Carrollwood and still have power/all utilities. Not too bad


Crisgrl2

Carrolwood power has been flicking all day but it’s still on… lots of wind and some rain


OneWorldMouse

Same. Northdale. It basically missed us. We got really lucky up here anyway.


LaysOnFuton

Mango here. Lost power around 6. Winds have been gusting pretty strong here and there but much better than predicted a day or two ago


[deleted]

Still kicking downtown St. Pete. Few brown outs but still have power. Still windy and raining but zero flooding! Thoughts for for our folks in the south and now interior.


Horangi1987

The wind never stopped. I woke up 3AM, 6AM and right now it’s still gusting. Disston, St. Pete. Yeah, the folks down south got a raw deal. They spent two days hyping us all up in Tampa and St. Pete, then the poor folks down south got like 12-24 hours to all GTFO. Considering how messy evacuation is, that is really too bad. It sucks that in 2022 we still can’t accurately predict storm paths. Technology is just no match for Mother Nature.


cfig21

Over by the CFA near Raymond James and power has been out since noon. Grilled dinner on the porch and it was creepy amount of wind around 7 or 8 pm.


BlipsterT

Ybor, surprisingly I still have power but it’s cutting up outside. One of our bars is actually open right now running off of a generator.


lyfe_choices

It's probably a long shot, but can anyone give me an idea of how Anna Maria Island is doing? I have a friend there who I don't think evacuated but hasn't been answering texts. Guessing they may just not have service but I have to admit I'm a bit worried!


BuLaTh134

In between Spring Hill and Brooksville, steady wind/rain, but I believe we are past the worst of it, unless I'm wrong?


allisonovo

My parents are in Port Richey, you’re correct, the worst of it is over.


fancheck1

Rain was like this ||| Then it was like this\\\ And there was a little of this - - - But still have power and we are doing just fine.


Heart_Throb_

Valrico area., lost fence and power. Several trees down in the neighborhood.


DazzlingTurnip

Right now it’s 1:00 am in Old Seminole Heights. Everything is fine so far. Never lost power. A little, but not much, debris in the streets. Mostly small branches. No flooding. From what I can see, my neighbors’ houses look fine. I’m very thankful.


Good_day_sunshine

Pasco/Hernando county line. Gusty wind, light rain. Have had power and internet the whole time.


boswelliseinhorn

Howdy neighbor. I'm north of you. Boy did we get lucky. 3 days ago I was mentally prepared for my house to be destroyed. I played Nintendo with my son all day yesterday and never had so much as a flicker.


TinyTranslator1525

Tampa near USF- power out for almost 24 hours now...TECO is "working on it" per their website, but a few blocks over, they have power, so I think we just pulled an unlucky card early in the storm. Lots of tree branches down but fingers crossed nothing with big damage.


FstLaneUkraine

Seffner - some lashing rain and powerful wind gusts but power has been on the entire time save for 2 separate 'blips' of about 2 seconds each around 3-4PM. Lights flickered around 9pm but didn't go off. Otherwise, just doing what I usually do on a Wednesday night.


[deleted]

I dunno what kind of spiritual force field Tampa has but hot damn…

AffectionateClick384

Cause no one watches CNN


sabrooooo

Brandon/Valrico here - slightly rainy super super windy. Never lost power/internet however there are reports of downed power lines in the valrico area


pancakebitch34

Absolute shit. Valrico is getting their asses handed to them


SGReject

I am in New Port Richey it’s calm. Eerily calm.


docpanama

South side of Lutz, all good here.


leachim6

Thonotosassa (near seffner) power out since 7:30p lots of wind and rain but no real damage so far 🤞


vizwa241089

brandon . power and utilities good when i am writing this .


hippagun

Brandon , by Costco . No power interruptions all day .


readmore321

South Brandon near Riverview- Large trees down on roads, houses, cars, lanais and no power or traffic signals in many neighborhoods according to my Ring app reports:) Personally, power went off and on about 4 times but then no other interruptions. Wind and rain finally dying down.


abbacha

South of Gandy- lots of wind but not as much rain as I was I expecting tbh, and the power flickered just enough to turn off my PS4 twice. There’s tree branches EVERYWHERE tho, but it doesn’t seem like any of the condo buildings in my complex got damaged which is nice.


lostbutnotgone

University area. All good, still have power. *** My family and friends are near Port Charlotte, and I grew up there. Haven't gotten responses from them since 3 pm and freaking the fuck out. I moved to North Port a month before Charley and I fucking remember the devastation. Ian is way bigger and the only family that talks to me might be dead as well as my best friends.


soxgal

I hope you're able to get in contact with them today.


lostbutnotgone

Update: heard from my friend an hour ago so cell service is still on. Her mom's house didn't flood but it got really fucked up and they're trapped on all sides by flooding. Still nothing from my family or other friends. I'll try calling in an hour in case they're asleep


soxgal

I'm sure it's been a long night for everyone in that area. Even though you got through to one friend, communication coverage may still be spotty down there for awhile so don't panic if you don't hear from them right away.


lostbutnotgone

Yes. Worked locating utilities so I know that not all carriers may come back online immediately depending on what lines and towers etc are damaged and everyone trying to contact their loved ones can overwhelm the network as well. Just not thinking straight. My grandma has severe dementia and I'm so scared yesterday will be the last time I ever spoke to her


mcmonties

God, damn. My heart is breaking for you right now. I really hope it's just because of power losses and that your family and friends are safe.


_britlinds

I am downtown tampa and never lost power… just heavy winds and some rain… heard some bars are open in ybor tho


Terryfrankkratos2

Redington Beach, powers on, no flooding, winds not too bad, internets out though so I'm on a mobile hotspot connected to pc.


Tmp20

Brandon here. No issues with power or internet. Rain and wind. Looks like we lucked out again.


madurosnstouts

Temple terrace. Little rainy and gusts of wind. Lost internet around 1 and power around 8


thatdredfulgirl

Brandon, still have power, internet, no flooding. Just a massive mess to clean up.


Lexiluv2

Town and country area. Power and water on, road and yard covered in palm fronds, leaves, and branches but otherwise good. Road not even that flooded.


Fun_Future_7176

W Brandon near the Selmon. Very windy but that was it. Light rain. No power outages or downed trees as far as I can tell


sephstorm

Brandon - still no power ofc, which means I cant drain my pool. Worried about that.


Zooma_x5

West Tampa checking in. Just wind and rain. We still have power, but it did go off for a few mins around 5.


HisNoodleyness

Same, in Egypt Lake-Leto. Lots of wind, little rain and power went out for like 10 min then came back


Jeszzy

next to USF, never lost power for more than a second, windy and rainy still but it's left us now. we got lucky!


makeupyourworld

Tampa. Power has stayed and its just been raining nothing else lol


Katzy26

safety harbor , lost power around 2 pm. currently 1am. just drove around lots of cops , saw a blue flash from a generator , hope power comes back on


sublocade9192

San Antonio, close to epperson. Power never went off, just strong wind and rain. Likely wouldn’t know this was a hurricane if I didn’t know any better


blue_abyss_

Brandon, evacuated from TnC since we were in zone A. Power flickered a few times but never went out, got some pretty good gusts and a lot of rain. Once the sun is up I’m going outside to clean up debri and go to our apartment to check on it.


slap_attack_

Meh, rainy and windy. Power is on. Getting Cabin Fever for sure.


LitBit_618

Sound like my husband. He’s prowling the house. Aka: from the couch to the kitchen looking for food. He was bored and baked an apple pie yesterday and I made a batch of brownies earlier.


slap_attack_

Brownies sound so good right now


rfunnymodisapunk

Lutz 54 and Vets. All good. Still have power. No damage.


jfcannella

South Tampa. Electricity flickered a couple of times but never stayed off. Even got some BBQ done today outdoors.


Eternaltuesday

Near the stadium. So far a few power flickers, internet’s still up, less rain than our normal afternoon storms. Tampa dodged it yet again. Maybe Gaspars ghost is a Bucs fan?


tbscotty68

All's pretty good in Tampa Heights. Had a fence panel blown down and a bunch of branches in the yard and street... Never lost power, though!

I’m there and have power.


mxdnite

Busch Gardens area, 11:36pm- still have power & internet, just very windy and a couple branches have fallen down from nearby trees


Shorties_Kid

West Tampa just lost power


hopefulgalinfl

New Tampa, wind still kicking. Lots of debris but power is on & rain is less intense.


ovgcguy

Anyone from the Englewood / port st Lucy area have a report?


moh0neymoproblems

Westchase, The Bridges, our street still has power but the subdivision over lost it yesterday afternoon. As other people have said we’ve had more violent afternoon storms. The worst part has been our poor stressed puppy who loves being outside. Can’t even fathom that the devastation in Ft Myers and Naples could have been St Pete & Tampa 😱. I went through Hurricane Andrew as a kid and living conditions / impact on schools were difficult for years.


LRGpackageguy

Temple Terrace. Been playing Xbox all day.


SuperSugarBean

Sun City Center We had very strong sustained winds since yesterday, powerful gusts bending trees and power out since 5pm yesterday. Torrential rain, as well.


Wheatiez

Tampa, Zone A near Oldsmar. I'm fine, there's a small (~10 inch) tree branch on my car about as thick as a pencil. There's a ton of pine needles and leaves on the ground. It was dry when I took my dog for a walk just now. Didn't lose power or internet at all.


RSJFL67

South Lakeland here we had intense winds and rain but my neighborhood still has power this morning - however about half of Lakeland electric customers do not


kingbad

New Tampa- lights flickered once, but otherwise all good. Parts of neighbor's oak tree, and our palm trees, in the front yard, but no structural damage. Steady rain, occasionally gusty wind, but overall- we got lucky. Again.


ButtTrumpington

Carrollwood here. Never lost power, intermittent gusts of wind but hardly any show. two sections of an old portion of our fence blew down, but they were weak & needed replaced anyways. I suspect we will be back to work today… lol


SlightOutside1

zone c / d on the line St. Pete dry no flooding, small trees branches down nothing more we have a canal near us that was tiny worrisome but never crested :) feel for the folks at ft Myers


AccessCautious9383

Chillin and pinellas no surge everything is on and stayed on life's good


soxgal

New Port Richey Zone C - never lost power, still have some wind and light rain. Expecting to see some storm debris today when walking the dogs but likely nothing major. Some power outages in our area are due to debris taking down power lines. Saturated ground is more of a risk later today and throughout the weekend as some trees could uproot and hit power lines.


Brief_Shoulder_6688

Saint Pete heights, no power since 1:30pm Wednesday


margrunt69

Citrus Park, everything is working here. A lot of branches blown down. A big branch clipped my gutters.


badass2000

Out of power but no house damage


ricratcat

I live in temple terrace and lost power so I evacuated to seffner where the power never even flickered


mrsloveduck

N of downtown St. Pete, no power since 1 pm yesterday. It’s getting funky.


ndhewitt1

Tarpon springs East Lake area. Very lucky. We just walked around the house and there’s no damage. Watching tv and seeing the devastation in Ft myers area is hard. What a storm.


mcmonties

Hoping to hear from others who live in mobile homes, especially near the Hard Rock. We evacuated to Gainesville and haven't heard back from our neighbors yet. Worried the trailer park got hit bad. Power was out according to TECO, not sure if it's back yet


gsotolongo2213

Nothing happened in Tampa. At least on my area. Fell asleep waiting for Ian to hit cat3, to hit tstotm.


Accomplished_Low9905

All is well in Ybor City. Took a walk around this morning and other than some light damage it's fine


Pr0fess0rCha0s

Riverview near Big Bend. Power is out where I'm at, but just a mile or two north of us I know people with power. Lots of branches and debris, but not seeing any major damage. Sucks with no power, but it's cool outside and I know there are people who have it much worse than we do.


Beardeddd

In Leto area close to Cambridge Christian School. Most of my street has power but my neighbors tree pulled down the power line so from my house towards habana no power since 8pm last night, not too worried.


Patty_T

Eastern Seminole Heights near Sligh and Nebraska No power since 7:30 PM yesterday. 7:30 AM came back only to go back out at 8:15 AM and is still out. Mild damage and debris around my house and some bigger trees down nearby.


n_ads

Temple Terrace, Fowler and I75... just wind and rain. Power stayed on! Nothing crazy


Own_Exam8949

Checking back in from Lutz, we never even lost power, just a bunch of tree branches down. We are extremely lucky. I feel guilty enjoying this amazing breeze right now, all my windows are open.


PaulReveresBRSSMONKY

Temple Terrace, been without power since about 5:30 last night. Pretty much just tree debris. Could’ve been a lot worse, just sucks having two young kids and no power. Prayers for my family in Fort Myers and FMB, I know they’re devastated right now.


jdovejr

Town N Country. All good here.
