some post milton photos my sister sent me from the town 'n' country area of tampa. her home in the next county over (pinellas) only received minor damage to a fence. she still has power, even. her dental practice here in tampa was also spared from any major damage.
Still over 400,000 without power in Pinellas County, Florida where I am at 🌀 #HurricaneMiltom#HurricaneMilton#Pinellas#Tampa#Clearwater#Milton#Hurricane#TampaBay#TampaBay
Using generator to keep the fridges and freezers running but still no power in Clearwater. Over 400k in the county still without it. 🌀 #HurricaneMiltom#HurricaneMilton#Pinellas#Tampa#Clearwater#Milton#Hurricane#TampaBay#TampaBay
still ended up with 10’ surge in sarasota but pinellas and tampa getting spared is something
Waiting to hear an update from my family in Pinellas county Florida, how are you?
