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!
Mom left last Monday to stay with my aunt in Sarasota for a couple weeks. My aunt is a seasoned vet and her son is high up in the fire department. I talked to her this am and she said they had to go to five gas stations yesterday before they found gas. They have plenty of supplies not only prepping for hurricanes but for the other coming storm. My cousin has put the storm shutters up on the house and they are not in one of the really dangerous zones. Today they are out on cousins boat. Gulf is choppy so staying inland.
