Yes, this is a Q Win. But we are family and now a lot of Florida pedes are facing a potentially dangerous storm. Some are new Floridians and have no idea of how evacuations work here or may need other help from us experienced Floridians.
So I thought we could do a check-in post here and we can move to another Win to support each other, if needed. I lost my old home at Weather Underground when they got bought by Weather Channel so it would be nice to have a bunch of y’all to chat with.
Right now, TropicalTidbits.com is the best online site outside of the National Hurricane Center. Levi has been hurricane forecasting for many years and is excellent. You can see the Euro and GFS models there also.
So if you are a Floridian and are facing the roller coaster of the next five days, go ahead and say hi!
I did. No longer :( Their stalls were in a converted 2 car cement block garage, with the west side open. We blocked the opening a lot with the horse trailer.
They did well. They were used to fierce thunderstorms and the block wall and tile roof made it less scary I’m sure. I would hang lots of hay in hay nets in case I couldn’t get out for hours. I also hung extra buckets of water. We’ve lost water in some storms because our community well system backup generator failed so I learned to fill 2 large buckets with water (and cover them) so I could just dip their buckets in later.
