how is it looking up there ? Just some light rain and 20 mph winds here in Orl.
I'm ATL so here it is sunny with a light breeze. I just wanted to listen in to see how bad it was there. I am mostly hearing about trees down blocking entire roadways. Also hear a lot of requests for wellness check as well.

Since the eye looks like it is going to be going through Fort Myers I am going to switch over to them now.

we've been through this before. you are talking to a crowdsource crowd. we accept hard money through amazon in the form of surveys. or zoom interviews, which for us, usually pay well.
Reputable newspapers (love, love, love The Economist - totally brave and credible!) will never offer finanical remuneration. It's not allowed :).

then don't ask for the interview from folks who rely on pay for a living. information is valuable. Maybe I ought to put it this way ... the stories are out there and they never change. but to be bugged by a reporter who wants free information ... naw ... don't have the time. don't answer stores anymore when they send a survey unless it's like a craft store and they send a big coupon. but amazon reviews? nope. time is money.

I was in Florida in 2005 and we got slammed with hurricanes (you remember that year). But the worst for Tally wasn't a major hurricane. Most major hurricanes hit in the panhandle and by the time they got through Tally were down to a cat 1 or tropical storm. The problem with the interior north of the state is that there are huge trees (not just tiny palm trees). So, even in a TS, they can ALL fall. Like, hundreds in the city. The last hurricane we had (right before we left) that wrecked the city was Hermine. Literally all over town trees were down - some on cars, houses, and blocking streets. In the city alone, over 300 trees. In our neighborhood, you couldn't walk at all (too many trees down on lines).

We lived through Matthew, too - we were coming up here to look at places to buy (or rent). We followed the hurricane up 95 and got stuck in Lumberton. (Crazy, memorable, and totally dangerous drive!)
