Breezy, but considerably calmer, think the worst is gone.

We just lost power on the west side of Appling co. And is getting pretty high gust here

 

[fountain]

We're getting hit pretty hard right now in Glenwood.

 

[benellisbe]

Jefferson county at burke line has been getting 50mph gusts for the past 1.5 hours. I've gotten over 4 inches of rain so far and these poor emc crews are going to be putting in some long hours

 

[blood on the ground]

Sending up a prayer for everyone affected! The pictures and videos I've seen so far is heartbreaking!

 

[blood on the ground]

Anyone hear if Nics okay? And Keebs to! I know there are more GON brothers and sisters down that way but these are the only 2 folks I'm sure live down that way!

 

[Matt.M]

Nic said was good on Facebook. He needs to assess his damage when it gets daylight.

 

[Mauser]

All the cell towers are still down around Calhoun co. Ga. We are getting ready to head back home.

Not sure what all is down, lots of power lines and damaged roofs. Cell service is pretty poor though, I’m back home in S. Dooly Co. cotton and pecan farmers took a beating.

 

[Cook&Bro]

Cordele is getting hammered, 8 calls so far. Oak just went through a roof causing an entrapment. This joker need to git!!!

Small world - was monitoring Crisp County (Broadcastify) when y'all got toned out for roof collapse (oak tree) with entrapment. Also heard something about a LEO with car "trouble" ... and transformers popping like lightning. Stay Safe.

Is there anyway to get current satellite images of PCB? Sons house sustained heavy damage. He is bay county sheriff's deputy. Mom and sister stayed at his house. Their home is behind dustys on PCB. Last text all 3 survived but wondering about taking down supplies.
Thanks
Patrick

I'd bet someone on here has the capability to see real time shots from Google Earth.

I tried google earth. Still old images. Daughter in law went to Tampa with grand kids. Said she heard from son today. Sheriff's department lost radio and 911. Only at&t is working for text msgs. Won't have power for 2 to 3 weeks. I want to load up motorhome and uhaul with supplies for them but I don't think they will let me into bay county

 

[elfiii]

Does anybody have any reports on Thomasville?
