Comments: So the report here is pretty good post Milton. We had one medium size tree uprooted, and much of the sand was stripped from our sandbox and the pond is within 7 feet of our pool. It’s normally 20 feet away. ….. thank goodness we only got 5 inches of rain unlike closer to Daytona Beach where they got 18 to 24 inches. One of our popular pickleball courts was destroyed by a tornado in CB. The tornado damage in Cocoa Beach was pretty significant, and some people were killed in West Palm Beach by another tornado. Multiple tornado warnings and storms all around us last evening was definitely the scariest part (except for maybe the alligator that marched down one of our neighborhood streets). Winds maxed out at 70 mph at 4 AM and are still around 45, but the worst has passed. Social media link with photos: https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=10234058523546030&set=pcb.10234058544346550
