Battening down the hatches. Cobra secured in the garage. So far 70 - 80 mph gusts and about 40mph sustained winds with driving rain. We now have an official hurricane warning and are in the direct path. Full force expected in about an hour or so. I'm actually amazed the internet/power/phones are still up. Barbados, 100 miles east is taking a bit of a beating - roofs off and trees down, but the worst should be over soon for them as Tomas builds strength and heads west - towards us. Looking out at the sea, it looks like a river as wind driven waves and whitecaps surge across the bay.
