Anybody heard from Sir Slash?

I have a fair idea where he is geographically and I have to think he was in the crosshairs when Irma was still a 4.  I suspect he is without power, and possibly a safe place to live, for some time.

report from my friend who lives in Key West (he's not home yet)

QuoteSatellite imagery shows the house and roof intact. Initial reports are very minimal damage to the base housing area. Storm surge is thought not to have reached homes. More thorough inspections needed of course. Almost all docks washed away. But lots of positive news so far.

I've stood next to that marker.  :o It must have been hit by something.
