Stay safe guys, and don't forget to let us know on Wednesday that you're OK or if you need anything.

I think I am in the cross hairs, but being in the middle of woods make me feel better. Suwannee County has some gas stations out. I am moving important firearms into my shipping container.

Got enough beer and food for a couple of days - then I raid the neighbors!!

Hope to see you on the backside !

On my way home from the doctor's stopped to get gas and they only had Premium,and that was in Deland,25 minutes west of Daytona speedway . Where I am they're saying 35-55 MPH gust and maybe 2-3 inches of rain,just like a normal Florida rain storm,LOL.

I like the track that has it going out into the Atlantic loop around head west hitting Cape Canaveral going across the state back into the gulf then go west hitting Texas.
That would hit me. Fortunately only one model shows that

Yep, Jeanne did that.
My brother works at the cape so gets everything early and told me that was going to happen.
I thought he was making it up but it sure did

Wasn't bad in fort myers today. Just some thunderstorms from 12 to about 3. I was stuck at work and every appointment showed up which never happens on a normal sunny day. Yesterday was fun watching all the old people buy up all the water and bread from publix.

Godspeed to y'all in the impact zone - stay safe ( I know you will) it may get ugly and we don't want to lose anyone.

I'll be standing down shortly as I'm in Manatee Co.
