More Updates

Jeanne made landfall in Stuart Florida late Saturday evening, a Cat 3 with sustained winds of 120mph.

TBO (Tampa Bay Online) reports this.

Some snippets:

A hospital lost part of its roof, said Tom McNicholas, an emergency management spokesman in Martin County. Dozens of patients at Martin Memorial Hospital North in Stuart were moved to other floors, but no injuries were reported.

Elsewhere in Stuart, part of a condominium roof collapsed. One person was rescued.

In Florida, waves of 24 feet were reported ahead of Jeanne and were moving toward the coast, where six-foot storm surges were expected. Powerful swells knocked pieces of mobile homes out to sea on the central coast.
