Irma has left the bldg.

She has moved up to a cat 5 (since this AM)......seems that most stores have already run out of hurricane supplies. I suppose seeing the amount of damage Harvey has caused, everyone's stocking up early. I was planning on getting water and some canned foods from Costco (today after work), but I heard they've also run out of water. 
 
Not sure whether to hunker down (having someone give an estimate on boarding up the windows today) or flee the area ......the downside of living in Fl.

Yeah..   I'm annoyed.  Harvey was terrible.   I hope this turns out to be a dud.   Recently I broke a finger doing brazillian jiu Jitsu - first broken finger of 20 years of mixed martial arts..    I am unable to move my plants and furniture inside from my outdoor patio/garden...    I do have a friend coming at 2pm to help a little.   but it is going to be very hard for me to do cleanup with a broken finger.
 
I'm very upset.   I also need to purchase water, food..    all kinds of stuff and arrg my hand hurts

Stay safe out there!
 
We're dealing with at least 74 wild fires in five states out here, the smoke is oppressive and ashes were falling yesterday under a dark orange sun.  If only the rain would balance out between the South and the Pacific Northwest, we'd both be better off!

I used to be friends with a guy named John - he and his wife live in Port St. Lucie.   A few months back on Facebook I told John, "he was stupid, he should f himself."   We are no longer friends...   surely he and his wife still live in PSL

Heart bleeds for all the damage and disruptions so many are experiencing. Got our share here with our place falling into rot over the cliff, but still a couple months before our share of 100 mph winds and the water deluge.
 
Stay safe guys. Really hope and pray that the series of storms, Irma, Jose in the wings curve back into the Atlantic. You are like here, one disaster trying to recover before the next disaster takes us to our knees.
 
Strange and surreal days out here on the Oregon Coast. Fires and smoke making the sun orange all day.

I was in St Martin last year, and LOVED it.  Possibly my favourite place in the world.
It's hard to look at some of the photos, seeing the destruction of places I got to know well.

The rains have begun.  I just spent the day locking up shutters and bringing in my plants that were in pots..   Unfortunately I have tons of plants in the ground and I don't know if they will survive.   To make matters worse..  I have a client who needs help with her hurricane shutters tomorrow morning - and because my finger is shattered I've decided to leave town - I have not been able to find water at any of the stores, and I can't sit in my house with the air conditioner off - assuming my power goes out which is probably like a 99% chance of happening.
 
Florida concrete block houses are like pizza ovens when the power goes out and the central air goes off.

We are in the path, in Inverness, Fl.  They were originally predicting the east coast but now its more the west coast side.  I'm staying put, for now.  I'm about 15 miles inland (east) from US19 (which seems to be the magic line in all the coastal counties as they all have mandatory evacuation for areas west of US19).  There's no gas anyway.  I tried getting gas Wednesday morning and stations were out.  I tried yesterday and they were out.  Gas Buddy shows all the local stations and to the north are out of gas.

They are now predicting Category 3 in my area now.  Going to get instruments (in cases) off the floor and put tarps on studio equipment, just in case.

Zactly. Ontario is quite literally one of the most boring places on Earth as far as Mommy Nature trying to forcefully jam a proverbial cactus up yer butt.
 
Just try not to cough Murrica cooties all over the place when you get here and you can hang out as long as you want.

7 years ago we had two days of sustained 85-90MPH winds, it tore off part of the roof of my house. I cannot imagine double that wind speed.

Wednesday and Thursday night Irma was going right over my house in South East Florida. Needless to say we were freaking out.
 
Always a weird feeling being thankful that it going to mostly miss us, but also knowing it is going to hit someone else.
I am sure the german language has a word for this mixed feeling.
 
To all the Sonarites on the west coast of Florida, stay safe !

We're in the central part of Florida and hoping this (currently) Cat 3 will slow down even more by the time it gets here. It's the southern parts and coastal areas of FL that really need to get out. We were thinking of leaving the state as well a few days ago, but getting out was too crazy with everyone on the road very few routes going north.
 
I've boarded up the place and hoping it will be less than a Cat 2 when it reaches us. It's a great community over here and everyone has been helping neighbors with whatever is needed to be safe. Thanks everyone for all the prayers and well wishes....it's greatly appreciated.

Bugs Bunny actually figured out the solution to Florida's hurricane problems AGES ago but no one listened!!!
 
 
 
Then just attach a large sail or outboard motor when the danger is gone to return... or yanno, go on a nice little cruise around the world.

For humor's sake, you can watch dozens of YouBoob videos that are claiming this is either A) a sign of the end-times, B) proof of global warming, or, C) part of the World government Elite's agenda with lots of "proof" that HAARP is being used to generate the storms, fires and earthquakes.

Apparently there are around 43,000 Americans who have pledged to "Stand Their Ground" and shoot at Irma in defiance.
 
Of course it's most likely a silly internet/facebook meme/joke thing but you know at least SOME of that 43,000 are serious.
 
I'm betting a Venn diagram of those you mention, craig, would reveal some overlap.

And hurricanes aren't proof of GW... all the other proof is... like yanno... the average global temps consistently rising in a steady pattern over many years. Extra nasty hurricanes with more frequency are just a symptom.
 
That is indisputable scientific fact.
 
Where it gets a little murkier is whether it's us causing the change. So although there is a preponderance of evidence indicating that is the case I am still (reluctantly) willing to give those who don't believe THAT is the case a fair shake.
 
But anyone who says it ain't happening at ALL?
 
Well good *fart* to you good sir.
