These are just some of the less destructive images I've uploaded:


http://www.ironworksforum.com/hosted...anejeanne.html

This was around 1-2 miles away from my house. In other neighborhoods that had tons of trees. We went around today, and guys, you have NO IDEA how lucky we are. EVERYWHERE we looked, every 10 feet it seemed, a huge old tree was fallen. We saw cars, homes and stuff crushed by 100+ year old trees! And get THIS: 70-80% of our county is with no power still!!! We dodged this bullet for sure folks. I mean WOW! I'll have the rest of the photos on that url page tomorrow... I'm going to bed now--couldn't sleep when the hurricane came in the other night and morning, then passed out around 3pm then woke up this morning at 3am and still up. lol, time to go pass out.

Impressive, was the outage for IW due to Jeanne?

<font color=skyblue>Thanks for the clear images.!!

However, #s 890, 889, 888, 886, 884, 883, 881, 878, 877, 875, 853, 852, 849, 846, (or in other words, the bottom 14 pictures) are not showing up, and are but black squares.

It also takes a doosey of a time to get them all downloaded into the browser. </font>

Take your time and let em load ;)

I have fixed the blank images, and actually added MORE, but broke them up into 2 more HTML pages for better loading. The ones I added show a LOT more damage.

PS: IW went down because I shut every PC off. We had surges, blinking power every 5 mins, so that would have screwed up the servers.. plus, they would be rebooting constantly. ;)

I made the images thumbnails so the pages load super fast now! [img]smile.gif[/img] Check them out, it is NUTS!

Wow Z dem some CRAZY photos. I can't believe the size of some of those trees that have come up. It will be a real blow to the nieghbourhood to lose trees that big and that old.

I agree you are LUCKY to have escaped relativly unscathed.

Wow, must be really strong wind. even the trees are uprooted.

Btw, interesting to see that the visitor count will increase by pressing page 1, page 2 or page 3. ;)

Yikes, that's a lot o' big dead trees. Good to hear that you weathered it ok, Z.

Sheesh that looks bad, strange, but good (of course) that not more people got hurt.

But the pictures load fast, even in Firefox... :D

<font color=plum>Has Florida been declared a disaster area yet? Can't imagine how much more it would take if not - 5 hurricanes in what? 3-4 weeks??

Absolutely insane.

Glad to hear that you and your family came through the storms so safely. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] </font>
