Just check in here and I'll add names and check in times. Feel free to pm me instead if you'd rather and I'll add check in times. This storm is going to be nuts.
I will gladly feel silly if this thread is unnecessary.
Correction:I know only one person in real life that is in FLA. Old friend of the family. He's near Naples.
That's pretty safe, right?
I'll add you to the list. I assume you stayed like a real man and didn't evacuate?Yeah me too. I live on a sandbar 500 miles north of Puerto Rico.
You drove from Orlando to Boca Raton before this hits?Checking back in, left Orlando at noon and drove to Boca Raton based on Irmas overnight westward movement in under three hours via the FL Turnpike.
I must've passed no less than 250 bucket trucks that were heading south in order to restore powerand remove trees where necessary. All of these trucks were from out-of-state companies. It was pretty impressive to see all the resources being mobilized, but strange at the same time because I was heading in the same direction they were.
Yes. Boca Raton was no longer in the cone after last nights westward movement.You drove from Orlando to Boca Raton before this hits?

Shark move is alternating layers of conch shells, coconuts, and human remains.Evacuating my bowels, I'll tell you what. Only shelters are two coconut trees and this pile of conch shells i've been working on.
For the eye. The storm is 400 miles across.Yes. Boca Raton was no longer in the cone after last nights westward movement.
Yes it is. Would you rather be in the West Palm Beach area right now or Orlando/Tampa area 200 miles from your home?For the eye. The storm is 400 miles across.
These things are all personal choice. I am expressing only surprise, no judgment from me in this thread as to what you decide to do. Stay safe and good luck.Yes it is. Would you rather be in the West Palm Beach area right now or Orlando/Tampa area 200 miles from your home?
Thank you and I appreciate everything you are doing.These things are all personal choice. I am expressing only surprise, no judgment from me in this thread as to what you decide to do. Stay safe and good luck.
Not really doing much. Let us know when it passes and you're doing alright. Looking forward to everyone making it through with flying colors.Thank you and I appreciate everything you are doing.

Have sex withWife freaking out..... people on Facebook are saying tornados in the area
It's not just Facebook. There have been a number of tornados popping up, with video. Currently one that should be in Weston after springing up in Plantation and is quite large and dangerous.Wife freaking out..... people on Facebook are saying tornados in the area

I live in Houston. We had over 140 tornado warnings in two days. Tell your wife to try and not freak. Most tornadoes generated this way are just the teeny EF0 and EF1 sort. They just aren't that scary. None of the Oklahoma goodness at all. On the other hand, if you have a trampoline, it's toast.Wife freaking out..... people on Facebook are saying tornados in the area
Looks like its back up, live cams really make for a surreal experience wonder how much longer they will stay up.Mallory Square cam down now. The others still up. Im keeping the two friends cam up on my laptop...Front St looks eerie all deserted with the lights on.

What's the story there, do they live nearby? Hopefully this is a newer/very safe warehouse? Did they consider evacuating?So my cousin, her husband and son (2yo) and her BIL, wife and 3 kids are sheltered at his employer's warehouse in a conference room in Ft Myers.
Very new warehouse - large company built it to withstand CAT5 winds.What's the story there, do they live nearby? Hopefully this is a newer/very safe warehouse? Did they consider evacuating?
