I wish to whole heartedly thank the community of Syracusefan for all of the support and best wishes during Hurricane Ian.
I am grateful for my personal situation.
I was surprised, but right after getting up this morning the power and internet services came back on after only a 16 hour outage.
Our home is lakefront and our lake rose to within a couple of feet of flooding our lanai and causing major damage. The only damage we suffered was 4 screen panels in the lanai lost to wind damage. The wind was so strong it also lifted and bent a metal support bar from our lanai cage and lifted the metal bar with four pavers attached. That was it for us personally except for a downed tree, plenty of debris, and possible damage to some plants. We still cannot travel anywhere until our street flooding abates.
I believe had Ian tracked 10 to 20 miles closer to us that my home would have suffered devastating flood damage.
Our beautiful downtown Venice area is devasted included severe flooding and damage to our famous near best in the country community theatre.
