Sisters' phones (Ft. Myers) are now operational. They are in a newbie panic. Asked me to buy two generators and haul them down there. I pointed out that a portion of I75 is closed down, rivers have not yet crested, and the supply of gas along the route is unknown. I'd talk to Walter (Cape Coral since 1970) for advice.

Walter agreed with me that would be dumb. He evacuated to GA well ahead of Ian and is still there. Will maybe drive down with a trailer full of care packages late next week at the earliest.

Told my sisters to get in Dad's car and drive up here. This will be a long term rebuild for them, and they can do that remotely just as well as they can living with limited electricity.

Two hours later one called back, just purchased three generators.
