This thing is a 185 mph storm now.
I knew she was special.
The county has given us Thursday and Friday off to prepare. However, I'm on the SBBC emergency services team. So I might still be very busy.
I'm almost done with my shutters, etc.
Time to help the neighbors.

I sure will. Better to get the horses out and I'll bring what birds, turtles and tortoises I can with me. I have lots of friends staying in town who are on standby to care for what I cannot take.

Today has it tracking slightly to the east.
This would spare most of us a direct hit. The storm center is 70 miles across.

That would be great, The last tracking of Jose showed it staying in the Atlantic, They named the newest one forming Katia.No idea where it is headed.

It's currently poised to run up the coast. Just inland and it would be a direct hit for us.
I'm hoping it goes further east.

If it could follow the same path as Matthew, or even further east, I think we'd all feel a little better about it.
Space coast is right in its crosshairs at 125 mph. Storm surge to the east and St. John's flood plane to the west. Ya live in a swamp..... never have run from one. Rode them all out since 72 but thinking twice about this one. Redfoots concrete house is probably sturdier than mine.

My house is cement and cement block.
It'll be here.
Without windows, doors and a roof?
This could really suck.
I don't think my house will blow away, I'm worried about my oaks falling on it. Been outside during other storms with treetops whipping, but not too bad at ground level. They kinda act as a windbreak. Riding the storm out, waiting for the fallout...
