Tropical Storm Debby wasn't all that bad of a storm, but it parked itself off the coast for so long, causing constant winds and rain for what seemed like an eternity. I worked at my shop throughout the rainy weekend, trying to complete a finishing job on a dining table & chairs under a deadline. Everything was fine when I left work on Sunday evening around 7pm. I came back to the shop around 8am to pick up some pieces to deliver back to customers and heard a lot of dripping upon going inside. It was raining rather heavy, so I must've been distracted enough not to have noticed this:
I took that picture Monday afternoon when we had a short break from the rain. My furniture repair shop is directly behind that tree by my truck & trailer. The roof is peeled back from the unit next to mine to the end of the building, within 20 feet of my shop. I did have water dripping through in a few spots, and a lot of it running down one wall, but at least none of my equipment or customer wares were damaged. This is the view from the other end/back side of the building. I had a window of time between calls on Tuesday, thought I'd stop by Lido Beach since I was driving by... waves were about 10-15 feet, winds were pretty strong as well. I couldn't believe how many people were still playing around in the water. -------------------- x
