We lost power in Florida with Helene because the ground was already saturated. Large old oak trees with Spanish moss hanging off of them toppled into power lines with winds that only gusted to 50 miles and hour where we are in Atlantic Beach. The ground continues to be saturated with heavy rains this weekend that are unrelated to Milton, so there is a greater likelihood of uprooted trees and flooding. On top of that, the forecast is for a slow moving storm that may still have hurricane force winds on the east coast as it transits across the Florida peninsula. Like Helene, it could also be catastrophic for people living away from the coast where building codes are less stringent.
