[at-l] Hurricane Charley

[WenchAT03 at comcast.net (Teresa)]

All's well here.  Sanibel Causeway bridge being inspected.  No residents
allowed on the island yet.  Captiva is now split in two by a new 400 yard
wide pass.  Not much structural damage here, just some trees down.  Surge
wasn't much on the river either, so that's good news.  8.5" of rain from 2am
yesterday through 10am today.

I'm glad you're safe RnR.  Charley strengthened quickly, and came ashore
much farther south than Hurricane Center thought.  Local news/weather is
doing a TERRIFIC job.

Hope all others are well too.
