we were privileged, but being young boys, we had plenty of other things to do, and it didn t hit us so much that we were uniquely privileged. this is your amazing scrapbook. as well this is your amazing scrapbook. as well as this is your amazing scrapbook. as well as the sound, the look of the coronation matter too. eve morris was a 17 year old apprentice were designer norman hartnell, who made the queen has coronation gown. her scrapbook is rich in detail, designs, fabrics and a letter with instructions for the big day. please take sandwiches with you and thermos flask as coffee will not be available. eve s job was inside the abbey. a needle and thread in her pocket, ready for any emergency repairs. i was sleeping at home because i was only 17 and none of the family had cars, so the baker had to take me to the railway station to get me to the train. i can remember seeing the queen come past, virtually passed me where i was standing,
a lot quieter than 2a hours ago. about 2a hours ago, we were watching what was hurricane ian kinda coming up the coast on the atlantic ocean, heading our way. we had some rain and things really ramped up overnight and through the early morning hours as we saw the rain and the winds really pick up, and i would say probably by ten o clock our time, am, all the way until about two o clock our time am all the way until about two o clock in the afternoon, it was, as we say, rocking and rolling. we had very, very strong winds. we had a wind gust of 92 mph on folly beach, which is one of our barrier islands we re right on the atlantic ocean and a lot of wind gusts right into the 60s and 70 mile per hour range, so it has been quite a day here and i guess when i ijust went home for dinner after a long day of broadcasting and in my neighbourhood, there s branches and stuff everywhere, debris everywhere, so it didn t hit us as hard
when i ijust went home for dinner after a long day of broadcasting and in my neighbourhood, there s branches and stuff everywhere, debris everywhere, so it didn t hit us as hard as florida but certainly, it did hit us pretty hard. i was just going to say how does it compare to what happened in florida? well, fortunately for us, it went over florida it hit southwest florida with 150 mile per hour winds it hit us with 85 mile per hour winds, but there were gusts even higher than that, so. and what is interesting is, lucy, the actual centre the eye of the storm passed about 40 50 miles to our north in a place called georgetown, south carolina, and we re south of there. but even though the centre went to our north, we got the brunt of the storm as the eyewall, those real strong bands of thunderstorms with high winds and heavy rain, actually went right through the charleston area, so it has been quite a day. and it s thought that the flooding in florida and other areas could conti
i lived there. people ride it out, and you think i can handle because you re thinking wind. i think too few people think water. water is so damaging. just give us what you think the damage is going to look like when that water recedes in your city. well, joy, good to be with you. as you know having lived in florida, you run from the water, you hide from the wind yeah. ian has stayed on its projected track and hit st. pete head on, we would have been looking at 10 feet of surge on top of 10 to 15 inches of rain, and no infrastructure in the world can handle that. and so we were blessed that it didn t hit us, but our prayers go out to our neighbors to the south, sarasota, ft. myers area. we still have six hours with the outer bands of the storm and we ll experience
