Same thing happened here. Gordon brought wind from the S and some of the more vulnerable tilted to the N. Michael brought wind from the N since we were on the west side and pushed the same plants back to the S. Basically back where they started!! Except I did lose one that snapped off at the ground level which is not a big deal. Chopped him up into mulch today. Two bunches were propped (2" PVC) on the S side with wind on the N so they were okay. Two bunches were without prop but they did fine. The wind was not very strong here. We were very fortunate.

Hard to believe the storm rolled into Georgia as a CAT 3.
