Does anybody know who our Florida members are? I think we've got a bunch.
I know of ZEROPILOT and cdmay. Isn't Aldabraman in Florida?

Off the top of my head.
I heard it was going to go almost straight up Florida and hit both sides.It's favoring the west now. Who knows.
Maybe we can keep in touch in case those of us more devastated can foster other animals from less affected members.
It could.I heard it was going to go almost straight up Florida and hit both sides.
Be safe and that's a great idea about fostering.
I am also very worried about him. Storm surge is so deadly. I can't imagine how he could protect those big aldabras. And any sulcatas in south Florida that are down in burrows would drown in the storm surge.I'm in Florida, but not in harms way cause I'm in the panhandle and west of the capital, Tallahassee. But, I returned on the forum after nearly a year because I fear for the Aldabraman. He has a farm on the south west side of the peninsula. How does he move those animals to higher grounds? With the projected winds and storm surge, will his animals be safe? Has anyone heard from Greg?
Sibi, Greg was posting just a couple days ago over in the Aldabra section, in the thread Aldabra Tortoise Breeder. You could probably contact him there, if not by pm.I'm in Florida, but not in harms way cause I'm in the panhandle and west of the capital, Tallahassee.

So sorry to hear this. I hope you and your family and pets get through all this safely.I'm in SW florida. Right in Irma's path....so sad. Our first year here.
That is my favorite area of the state to visit/explore. I was supposed to be canoeing the Chipola River at Marianna early next week...sort of doubt it now. Dang...I'm gonna miss my stop at the What-a-Burger on Monroe in Tally!I'm in Florida, but not in harms way cause I'm in the panhandle and west of the capital, Tallahassee.

It's looking like that now, @StacieJI'm in a suburb of Tampa and it's starting to get a little breezy. According to the radar and forecast which we hope are wrong the eye will go right over us.
