  1. Yup I think they’re going to luck out this time. “May fortune favors the foolish” I guess?
  2. I have a bad feeling they’re going to be up for a Darwin Award when this is done.
  3. Ugggh..Didn’t want to hear that. They just flat out refuse to go. It’s inexplicable
  4. I actually had a lightning strike alert from a storm about 11 miles away at around 3am
  5. I have friends in Punta Gorda who stubbornly refuse to evacuate. I really hope they avoid the worst of this. Right on the water in a two story apartment building
  6. No frost overnight tomorrow here at least.
  7. I believe I read somewhere that tropical birds were found as far north as CT/MA when the ‘38 hurricane ran up the coast
  8. It’s hard to imagine this is going to weaken all the way to a 3 before it hits the coast but I guess that’s the hope currently
  9. Retired and given a generous pension
  10. I think this summer has changed my mindset about wanting to relocate down to the west coast of Florida when I finally get to retire. Not just because of these hurricanes but a lot of it is. Hurricane insurance is apparently so cost prohibitive that people are going without it.
  11. Hopefully (maybe?) if it’s intensity is peaking right now, it’ll slowly begin to weaken well before coastal impact
  12. A little further south would bring it into Ft Myers which was leveled just a couple of years ago
  13. Is this expected to track up the coast in a diminished form like the examples above?
  14. “that these times will pass, and the challenges to solve will still be there” “This horror will grow milde, this darkness light.”
  15. But at least there you can get some quality Mexican food
  16. Oh God this is so boring…..Is it too early for Wiz to start his May 1st thread?
  17. I wonder how this compares to the infamous hurricane Camille flooding in the same general area in ‘69?
  18. Safe to assume that development in the central ATL won’t get anywhere near the US?
  19. Maybe we’ll get lucky and October will deliver the goods
  20. I don’t know if this says more about the picture or myself but she actually looks better with the mustache
  21. My friends folks are going to fly back to Punta Gorda on Thursday night. Had to tell her I don’t think so….even if the hurricane lands north
  22. Hurricane David back around 1980 after it struck FL produced some very stormy weather up this way. edit: hit the east not the gulf side
