I’m in Kissimmee. The lake behind our house made it to the edge of our

yard, so it traveled about 15 feet. A ton of rain here. Still can’t get out of the neighborhood because the entrance is under water. A couple of people were kayaking down the street yesterday. Water has gone down a bit though. Luckily no water got in our house. Miraculously did not lose power, and we have plenty of food in the house. Lots of downed leaves, limbs. A ton of bottles that people have thrown into the lake over the years are now in my back yard. Could have been much worse. Prayers for anyone along the coast near or where Ian made landfall.
