Prayers, hope y'all don't get hit too hard !!

Yup. Gonna come ashore near Cedar Key just west of me. Prolly stir the gators and yankees up

You should probably burn any loose wood or branches so they don't become projectiles. :p do it in your skivies and the Yankees will evacuate a little faster!

funny

I thought it was going to be a joke about crazy braces in Florida. I'm disappointed.

Y'all stay dry now, ya hear?

Now classified as a Hurricane... Winds 75mph. Looks like it's gonna hit Cave Country... pig hope you're all secure...

With 80%+ humidity that is impossible to do even without the severe weather!

Just got reports from family in Wesley Chapel that they got a quick squall that threw some branches and a stop sign around. Or it could have been a local who hit Total Wine for hurricane supplies!

funny

I'm from Wesley Chapel. :D There was a Tornado Warning between 14:15 and 14:45 EDT today, but the area was actually North Pasco (St. Leo) and much of Hernando County..... <pause>

Well, now we're under a 2nd Tornado Warning until 15:45 but for NW Pasco and Hernando (I'm SE Pasco). A Supercell is moving north with rotation detected.

Back to ya later...

OK 2nd Tornado warning now lifted. Back to a Tropical Storm Warning until 22:00 EDT and Tornado Watches until 23:00 EDT.

Y'all stay safe.

rumor of a tornado at Cross Creek where Jake and I fish...hope it blows that damn cottonmouth out of the outhouse

Here ya go, Florida Gator braces:

Stay safe, I'm in Orlando so apart from heavy rain, not much happening here.

Thoughts and prayers for y'all.

South Carolina house is dead in the middle of the track. I decided not to go this morning. New metal barn roof on, back of house half done with new windows. Sixty foot tall Oak trees all around...This should get intere$ting.

Stay safe out there.

I tied my smoker to the car port. Too damn big and heavy to put inside. From the sounds outside and the waving of the pine trees, the ass kicking is fixin' to commence

Hang in there pig, we'll be praying for y'all!

I have seen what a Typhoon can do and a hurricane, so be prepared to get up and move if told to...

One of the first storms my wife and I went through as new homeowners had us cranking down shutters, clearing the yard of all debris. That included bringing my new gas grill into the living room. After day two waiting for a storm that stalled I seriously considered lighting the grill up inside. We prepared way to early and the storm barely brushed us. Indoors with shutters for two days was mind numbing. I was getting cabin fever and had to get that grill out to do some grilling!

I spent three days on the Austin (LPD) riding out a hurricane in the 80's off Moorehead City. Shoulda seen some of those city yankee boys :p

Gunny wrote me up for going on the secured weatherdecks to take pics. This deal will be a breeze

Yes, we will see Mike, just be safe


Clyde

Stay safe pig and Jake and Mrs. pig

Thanks Doc!

No power. No water. Trapped in the domicile with the female unit

Make Jake a brother......

Be safe! Y'all in my prayers!

I oughta slap the taste buds outta your mouth Joseph

Glad to hear all are safe Mike. Road out under water?

Some water. Power line down in the drive out to the road. Cooking coffee on a camp stove now

Glad to hear things at the pig farm aren't any worse than loss of power/water and oh ...... having to drink morning coffee with the female unit.

9:00am report for Tampa Bay - We're dealing with the last major band of the storm. Still some heavy rains and winds to 35mph, gusting to 45. Still under a Tropical Storm warning until 6p tonight, but no more tornado watch.

Hopefully, just this last band to deal with and that's it.

Glad no major issues for you guys.

^ Exactly and thanks for the updates !!

As of 11am, the NHC cone track shows the Tropical storm warnings lifted for the entire gulf coast. Only near Fernandina Beach are they still in effect. But Weather.com still shows them as in effect for Pasco County FL until 3pm. We'll see. Right now, all is quiet, a little breezy, but very soggy. Let's hope we dry out soon.

I about killed my sister for a baby request that was similar..... funny

All good in NE Jax. Still getting some bands with gusts between 40 - 50 MPH.

late to the party but stay safe all you folks down there. I was reading its going to run up the seaboard for the next few days...what a monster!!

Coming up to dirty jersey.
