2. I talked to my sister-in-law in M.B. SC... she said it wasn't bad...
she still had electricity.. some gusty wind and rain... not too bad... should be mild damage and outages (maybe 24hrs) in places that lose power. Its barely registering gusts of 70m/hr.

7. It's a nice town
My mom just bought a few condos for time sharing purposes and she's been begging me to come down and visit, hopefully the damage won't be too bad and I can come down in the next month or so

11. It restrengthened.

Like they said it would all along. It was almost a CAT1 (barely) when it hit.
