Man I wish all you Floridans the best, sleep with your life jackets on tonight, I know that's not funny, but be prepared!

Getting the one sleeping closet ready. I have too many Hugh oaks that come crashing down with the soft ground. Flooding is gonna be real bad also.

Dang, thoughts and prayers!

Praying for my fellow Floridians in the path of this monster. Hoping it's going to weaken before making landfall. We don't have any spare rooms, but we do have a lot of vacant land if any of you have RV's.

how far inland are you

25-30 miles

Prayers up for you folks in the area of Tampa... Coming in straight up the bay is always a bad deal! Ike came right up Trinity bay south of Houston and it put water over the I-10 bridge... In normal times barges and tugs go under the bridge!!! Amazing what Mother Nature can do!
My prayer is that you all fare OK and there's no loss of life.

Turning south of Tampa Bay maybe you never know for sure, but gonna be a high rain maker 10-15 inches.

Looks like my son is now ground zero. I think him and the neighbors will be partying. Youth?

If he lives through it, he'll never do it again. I would strongly advise him to leave.

We will start feeling it later tomorrow. They are talking about 30hrs of hurricane winds

We probably had 24 hours. Up here when it hit us it seemed to loose a little, but when it hit the water again by PEI, it picked up again big time. Newfoundland and PEI and the north coast of Nova Scotia got hit worse than us. Take care brother, help your neighbors. Generators are hard to come by up here. I’ve had one since Juan. And I got lots of gas, I think I had 15 gallons.
Good luck brother.

Close enough. Tampa is going to get hammered.

Poor Tom Brady.
Good luck to everyone in the path.

We are a university town. During the hurricane, the university kids were on the boardwalk along the harbour jumping the waves coming onto the walkway. No fear.
haha

will never get out at this point. 75 is a parking lot and now everything east is under tornado warnings. His house shouldn't get flooded but the wind maybe pretty bad. We tried to get him to come stay with us earlier when we saw change in the path. He is an adult and has to make his own decisions. Hope this one works out. my wife was ground zero during Andrew so she doesn't get to riled up

Some waves along the Northumberland Straight were onto my friends yard that’s over 100’ off the water. Crazy

We had a lot of old trees come down on power lines and homes. We are still cleaning up. Still over 100,000 people without power.
