I'm 30 miles north of Atlanta. Rain for last 24 hrs, winds kicking up later this afternoon.
Staff calling all afternoon patients to reschedule or slide in this AM.
Off tomorrow. 30 patients to 20 patients on schedule, and probably will see only 15.
Be safe out there Southeasters.

When does the hurricane reach Georgia? You may want to cancel two days of clinic. We’re always optimistic about how quickly things will normalize post hurricane and then we’re scrambling and the patients are confused. Plus since everyone is still at home there’s no one to call the patients to tell them not to drive in.

be safe all

Just notified we’re closed tomorrow. No idea how many ppl I had scheduled.

 

[jsaul]

yes it usually will take twice as long as you think to recover and reopen from a hurricane. I've been through enough weather events here in houston to know

Private equity clinic is making my friend go in for business as usual in Atlanta. Never mind the flash flood alerts and messages not to drive from the National Weather Service.

I should be at work right now. I’m 50 min from Atlanta.

We got hit hard. We were without power for 6 days, and much of our city still is. Water was off for 48 hours. No internet at home, and even cell service has been off since the storm. Every third or fourth house seems to have a tree through the roof. We got lucky that all trees near us fell away from our house, onto neighboring homes ‍. All clinics shut down for the entire week, schools shut down for 2 weeks. At work now (Saturday morning), enjoying the first internet I've had for 10 days, pre-charting on the upcoming week's patients. Good times. Seriously though, thankful for our safety, many in the area have it much worse.

Sorry to hear you all are going through that. Living in texas near 45min from the coast,
I know of what you are gling through. Where do you live?

 

[stsa84]

Eastern Georgia, a few hours from the coast. Hurricanes usually fizzle out before they get anywhere near inland as us.

 

[MitchLevi]

Which city? I’m from Savannah and live in Athens.

 

[jsaul]

Eastern Georgia? I used to live in Dublin Georgia for a few.years
Yes hurricanes were not something to.worry about in that area

 

[stsa84]

Near Augusta. Athens is what, only 1.5 hours away? Heard y'all were fairly spared, a lot of people around here fled to Athens for the week, after the storm hit. We thought about it, but only had 60 miles worth of fuel in the car, and there were no open gas stations in town. Here's a couple pictures of our neighborhood. We've spent countless hours cleaning up our property, looks mostly normal again except for the downed trees across the pond.

Oof that roof


Looks like a different portion of Florida is getting a hurricane

Tropical Storm Milton forms in Gulf; forecast to strengthen into hurricane headed toward Florida

Tropical Storm Milton is forecast to strengthen into a hurricane headed toward Florida with possible impacts to the state's western coast.

Wow. Where were you during the actual storm?

 

[stsa84]

In our bed, trying to sleep lol. Had the kids come downstairs to our room. Power went off around 4am, wind speeds reached 100mph. It rained close to 10" the day before, brought the pond up to within a few feet of our lower retaining wall. Then the winds just easily pushed over the trees sitting there in mushy soil. By 6am it was past. I know coastal FL and other Gulf states must get hit harder when these things come through, but it's been pretty surreal, especially 3-4 hours inland. We couldn't get out of our neighborhood for 3 days, power and water were off, all our cold food went bad, no cell service. We know 6 close families who are displaced from their homes, with big trees inside their homes (photo below of a tree on a friend of mine's bed, which fell 5 minutes after they decided to move downstairs to a central location). Again, we feel very grateful and thankful that we did not fare worse.
