Saw the pix of flooding in Pensacola. Incredible. Looked more like scenes from Colorado last year. 

Here we have a convection oven. 95F or so and 10-60 mph winds and 20% humidity on a good day. Thrashed the bananas and dehydrated some of the tender new fig leaves.

Glad you're OK, Charles!

Thank you everyone,

We have started the recovery process at least in the house. All floorcoverings have been removed and the baseboards cleaned. Do far we seem to have saved the sheetrock but I still have some areas to check. We are ordering the vinyl for the kitchen, baths and entries later today. There is a lingering smell that we can't quite get rid of and I suspect there must be someplace that insulation got wet. I'll have to find that and deal with it. We have chemically cleaned the concrete so it has to be something else. FEMA is now on board and I have made application. I guess I'll know in a week or so what will happen there. Out of all of this the thing that is just irreplaceable is the 6" to 10" of topsoil that I have spent decades building. It simply was washed away. You just can't buy that stuff.

Charles, I lost topsoil in my backyard from the same storm.  I spent most of saturday adding 10 bags of topsoil and 5 bags of mulch to the area, smoothing everything off, and planting some lilirope in the area.  I also had spent several years building up the topsoil that was lost but it sounds like my losses were nothing compared to yours.  My sympathies - I can imagine how you must feel.

Ouch! Applying to FEMA may have been a mistake. My mothers house down near Tampa got flooded in the no name storm of 93. My wife was down there working a show at the time so she tore out the carpets and sprayed it down with bleach, but my mother was staying with me and I couldn't get down there to do anything else about it. When I did get down about 2 years later the neighbors who had gotten help from FEMA were crying about all the grief they had gotten from the county afterwards. A lot of them had to replace their house with a stilt house because their codes got tightened. Since I hadn't applied I slipped through under the radar. Had to replace the fridge. water heater, and furnace out of pocket... but, I was happy with that after hearing the horror stories some of the neighbors had about getting "helped" by the government.
