Come on. Brother has plenty of room for your toys. Freezers full of deer meat. And tower where we can watch the sun set.It'll be a lot safer over there than here. The way that crazy assed thing is doing it may chase me over there.
That's a helluva party tower. You sold me and the spouse. But I'm afraid if we leave we'll go no farther than we have to so we can get back in before the National Guard shuts it down. Gotta watch over the property.Come on. Brother has plenty of room for your toys. Freezers full of deer meat. And tower where we can watch the sun set.
but it will likely just be the bad side effects of the storm here. Everyone please be safe.
Stay safe, we'll be thinking about yallWe are all set here in Central Fla, 160 miles north west of Miami right in the middle of the state. I have (2) generators ready, one 3000 and one 7800, windows shuttered, lots of water, lots of gas, lots of propane, lots of food, batteries, (2) chain saws ready, plastic sheeting and duck tape at the ready. Most everyone in Lake Placid Fla.(where I live) is staying. Highway 27 north, which runs through the middle of Town and only 2 red lights,has been bumper to bumper all day yesterday and today. I am in an area where we kind a look out for each other when needed. The gas stations here are all out.
Fla Highway patrol today has been escorting gas tankers all over the place trying to get relief to folks, hats off to those guys.
Please pray for all of us down here and pray the storm moves through at a fast pace.
Glad to hear @Whizzer got off the coast, Englewood is very low land.
Looking at the projected path of this thing this morning, I think if I were you @Johali, I'd be pulling up stakes and heading inland. Like the old sayin' goes, better to be safe than sorry. No need to be a statistic because of possessions. Good luck to you and the rest of the southern coast.
We're thinking about it. We'll know pretty soon.
What is your weather like now?... still quiet or has it started?
Clear skies, 71 degrees rising to 87 later today. If it gets close enough we wont feel anything until Monday night at it's projected speed.
That's one of the craziest things I've ever seen.Come on. Brother has plenty of room for your toys. Freezers full of deer meat. And tower where we can watch the sun set.
Andy says it's weakening quickly. Hope that is the case for your sake.
Yep. Pam Bondi is a hottie for sure.
I think it's kind of silly, too. But, I have to admit it's a great place to watch a sunset. No trees to get in the way --- just a clear view to the horizon.Irma from space.
That's one of the craziest things I've ever seen.
It probably depends on how much damage is done ---- not only to the track, but to the surrounding area as well. If power isn't restored to
That's kind of what I'm thinking. If the devastation to the area is as bad as a it looks like it could be, they need to start plans now for a different location.
Where you live the top deck would make a good deer stand.
This thing really does not need to get out into the Gulf and start to strengthen again.
I left Tampa after work yesterday. A lot of graphics have the TB area being underwater soon...ran into a much higher than usual amount of traffic trying to take back roads north, through Citrus and probably Marion and on. Depending on what today tells us we could head to one of the many schools nearby so we're packed just in case.Dude, I hope you left the Tampa area at least.
We are fully prepped here, my mom is going to be stuck at Disney until possibly Tuesday. It will probably be one of the safest places in terms of protection because Disney always takes extra precautions when it comes to their buildings. Flooding won't be an issue, but I expect the hurricane force winds to do some damage.
We will be fine, trust me.
Except the land right behind him is a large ranch that hosts private hunts.Where you live the top deck would make a good deer stand.
Stay safe.
I assume it be moved to another ISC track my guess be Richmond, Phoenix or Fontana.
If I had to guess I think it would be Phoenix.
Appreciate all of the positive vibes, a lot of you are more worried about it than the people that are here in the area!
I managed to grab some flash lights at the last minute, batteries, and some portable chargers! Got extremely lucky!
