Yep. Here comes another one:

We (wife and I) were supposed to land in Cozumel yesterday at 11:30am,
decided to change the tickets to September (9/11 geaux figure). I called
the couple that owned the house where we were staying at 10pm last
night. Power was off but it wasn't raining or blowing very hard yet.
Emily was 50 miles ESE with 135 mph winds and moving at 18 mph at the
time I gave them an update. Around 3am they were shoving buckets of
water out of the house (tile floors and solid concrete walls). No damage
to the house, but the yards pretty torn up, they'd already cut down all
the big trees when they boarded the place up. I got the update report
from their daughter in New Orleans after they called her this morning, I
haven't been able to get a line down there since last night, always a
recording until this afternoon when I can't even get that. Looks like
the internet is backup again down there though...
