I seem to have joined the "Hurricane of the Month" club, with Debbie hitting in August, Helene in September, and now Milton in October. Can I discontinue my membership?
Actually, Milton proved to be no great problem here, though it was a far different story for folks along the I-4 corridor and south. My youngest brother has checked in safe and sound from his home in Port St. Lucie, although his county got hit by a Milton-generated tornado swarm. I'm still waiting to hear from a couple of cousins who were riding things out in Orlando, but they're among the millions minus power at the moment.
The one good thing about this latest storm is that it pushed me to finish my Holy Bull manuscript, which is now off to the readers at the University Press of Kentucky. I still need to finish up the fully formatted submission, but that shouldn't take too long. Then, it's off to developing a proposal for my next project!
