anyone know if the power is back on near UCF - Orlando? I heard Ft. Myers mostly has power now and I'm thinking about driving back to my apartment tonight. Tryin to determine how much ice i'll need.

I have a friend who lives on Dean and he got power back last night. We were lucky in Ocoee it was supposed to come right through here then went east. I never lost power except during the storm 3 times but only for not more than 5 minutes. I'm buying stock in DirectTV. It went out only a couple of times for only a few minutes even during the peak.

THANK GOD I FINALLY GOT MY INTERNET!! Alright well we were fortunate enough to keep our power but we've been without cable and internet...which sucks!! We were lucky enough not to lose anything and our neighborhood was safe. My friend who lives my UCF is still out of power and they're not expected to get it until friday. I'm just happy no one was seriously hurt. My family got hit hard too but they were safe as well! Glad to be back!
