Jake- Current projections has the eye passing just to the west of you, of course leaving you with the worst part..the advancing side which has the highest winds. You are a survivor, but thoughts and prayers with you as the planet needs more of your talent.

Gabor, who knows what you will have come your way, but thoughts and prayers to you and your family also.

No biggie.

Whatever you get Gabor, stay safe and keep us updated. Had a couple here in the last few years but they've only been a fart and a piss in the thunderbox compared to what you're facing.

Aaaaaannnnd we just lost power. So we are sitting at the neighbor's drinking beer wishing for the power company to fix the damage.
A branch broke off and shorted the high voltage (6000V) lines and broke the insulators.
It was burning like crazy.

How will the stiltsville houses in Biscayne bay fare in the cyclone? Do they ever get wiped out by waves or are they a bit sheltered? :eek

I bet the residents go onshore when cyclones are about?? :pop :wol2 :Wolvie

The media sucks.
They sensationalize everything and instill panic in the masses.

It's hugging the west coast. Hopefully the dirty side being blocked by the land will cut the water fueling it. We are going to have tornadoes though....
Will be having 75+ mph winds and storm surge of about 8 feet.
This will completely take out A1A and the whole Flagler Beach area will be lost.
Matthew started and did a good number on it and these idiots packed the sand back and tossed some rocks on top.....
Yeah..... that will hold!
:punch
Unfortunately we will have the major event arriving around 10pm through 8am Monday.
I prefer seeing the shit go down....but it's not my choice.
:trup

That's not a wind..... more like sea breeze.....
Relax the punch is on its way. 6 more hours before we get the real hammering.
Should last for about 10-11 hours and lots of tornadoes.
I have asked the higher power to show me what we can expect.
I think I got my answer.....
Mikey you OK?
Palm bay had 2 tornadoes come ashore.

Sitting on my back porch I've already heard some small limbs fall. I'll put the hurricane shutter down in a little while. Haven't yet because when I do I won't be able to see outside.
