Approximately 4am the wind really began whipping around our condo which is on the 2nd floor, on the end. My husband Mark waited it out an hour, then woke me up because I am fascinated by these storms, and he felt that I would be upset if I missed the storm. We spent the next 4 hours observing the storm, and filming it from all sides of our condo in Blue Heron the Sanctuary. The storm howled around our complex, and was a great experience. I have spent every hurricane, and tropical storm on the porch since Andrew in '92.
