We'll be riding it out. Cars will be in a garage about 3 stories high, got water, food and all the good stuff. Anyone wanna grab a Corona for some last minute laughs in Miami let me know!

I'm not leaving town, but i'm in Lutz, 62' above sea level in a home built in 2009 to St Pete beach hurricane code. I did have some suspect trees removed today. One leaning towards my house, the other leaning towards my neighbors house. Hopefully that will mitigate most of the potential damage. With as much rain as has saturate the ground around here, downed trees should be expected.

Try to think on everything... Stay safe my friend !

Have a feeling the after shot is going to be very different

I have to work

saturday and sunday, my city lets me park my car in the city hall garage while I'm at work... I'm hoping for the best!

I don't envy you FL folks knowing your entire weekend is going to suck at best, and possibly be much worse than suck. Best of luck to you all. I'm hoping the storm doesn't beat the hype. In this case a dud is a good thing.

If you're staying and can take that same pic during the storm surge, I'd appreciate it. My house is just to the right of center in that frame

nyalpine90 · 09-08-2017, 06:04 AM

be safe everyone!

This is a crazy picture, comparing the relative sizes of Hurricane Andrew to Hurricane Irma. Amazing how big this storm is:

We are Austin to Houston.

Good luck, Man. I hope it works out for you.

Charleston, SC port commissioner just indicated live on the Weather Channel that thousands of BMW vehicles have been moved out of the port in prep for potential hurricane impact. He mentioned that only 45 BMW vehicles remain at the Charleston port.

wren57 · 09-08-2017, 07:54 AM

Anyone with the means to get out that doesn't is nuts. The eyewall on this thing is huge. Even if the eye doesn't pass directly over you the strong winds will cover the entire state.

nyalpine90 · 09-08-2017, 07:55 AM

they are saying Irma is a monster compare to Andrew...
Jose is right behind her, probably wont increase its size remains cat 2
