85. I knew you'd be OK, just soggy, as that thing wobbled to the west

Hurricane force winds extended "only" 30 miles out from the eye, so this was a pretty tight storm.

I think the worst of this will be in the interior where bridges are more likely to be out, delaying aid of any sort.

I'm just glad you cam through it OK. I just hope someone was smart enough to distribute water purification tablets inland before this monster hit.
