I saw on Facebook that there is a new shipment of gas at Tom Thumb at 331 and 98.

Thanks for the info

Drive 25 miles north on 331 and purchase all the fuel you want. I went to gas station on hwy 90 ( away from interstate) and didn’t even have to wait in line.

Thanks for the info

have not been to Sowal in a number of years, but it is a happy place of many good family memories. Praying for ya'll that property damage is minimal. The CNN coverage of beaches further east is sobering.

It is bad East of PC, but I’m sure fake news CNN is making it appear worst. “ you need a deep water flood shot? I’ll stand in a deep ditch.”

The incident you are referring to has been proven to have been mischaracterized.

Good morning.

Any info on power restoration in/around Seagrove? The Chelco outage viewer seems to be down since late yesterday. Curious if the pre-staged crews made progress overnight or if they're waiting for daylight?

Turns out Chelco has a facebook page with helpful information:

Choctawhatchee Electric Cooperative, Inc. Areas on the east end of our service area south of the bay, such as Point Washington, Grayton Beach and Eastern Lake, are out of power primarily because the transmission line that feeds the aea from Panaman City Beach is out of service. This impacts three of our substations. The transmission line is owned and operated by another power company. We are told that they are working on that line today. After it is repaired, there might be other damage from the substation to members' homes that will need to be repaired.

Also, their outage viewer is dependent on power to their SRB office which is affected by the same outage, so it's unlikely to be back up until after they've successfully restored power to the area. So check the facebook page for updates.

My 16-year-old son, who can find anything on the internet, gave me this same info this morning BUT he also told me that a crew was working on the particular transmission line this morning (that was before he left for school). LOL, he seemed to know exactly what he was talking about, so I took him at his word. I hope it is true.

I see the fake news has made up a bunch of stuff about Mexico Beach. False Flag! moron
