My Dad lives just off the coast at Cocoa Beach (north of Melbourne/South of the Space Center where he worked until retirement) and stayed in the condo–as I said to someone Friday night:
He has the generator going, the beer stocked, and the gun ready. Is heading over to the neighborhood tavern until curfew hits at 8.

He lost power for an hour, but other than that is fine. Maximum winds around him were somewhere around 80 though he had 60 MPH winds with Charley, just not as for long. The Condo building probably needs a new roof, but nothing catastrophic. My mother–on the other coast, just got a lot of rain.

Thanks for all the wishes.
