fuck. so my dad just FaceTimed me and his front yard is completely submerged. the mailbox at the end of the street is underwater except for the tippy top of it. in his garage (house on stilts) it's 2-3 feet of rushing low tide surge water. and #helene is 150 miles off the coast.
he didn't leave since the storm is supposed to pass #sanibel way off the coast (again, 150 miles or so). he said high tide isn't there yet, but they'll be sleeping on the top floor tonight. #hurricane
