Hurricane Again!

Hope the fires are not near you Brooke!

Guinea - I'm in northern Florida, near the capital Tallahassee, so thankfully don't have to deal with storm surge (just tornado and high wind damage ).

Lots of people are coming to my area from the southern counties, but its still uncertain where ugly Irma will hit. We are on the west edge of the impact cone right now, unless there is another western wobble.

I have to give kudos to Jet Blue, for offering $99 flights out from every city where they operate to help people evacuate.

Interestingly, many Florida disaster recovery teams are in Texas helping them deal with their situation.  Hope they don't have to rush home to deal with more here!

Brooke and Guinea - Hope some rain comes to deal with the fires! All that smoke can't be good for breathing.

Irma is currently wobbling west - and now I'm well inside the warning cone.  Traffic is terrible on the interstate highways, and those moving north may not be able to outrun this storm.

Hurricane winds for my area by Sunday morning, if there is no change.  Much sooner for many other Florida folks playing the game.  Very glad I laid in my water and supplies early!  Stores are nearly stripped of basics, even in my area.

stay safe  willow ill be praying for you :(( and thank you and all your friends for helping me I really appreciate it do you need help as well? :)) if you do please let me know :)) also ill be praying for Brooke and GuineaUp that they get some rain to help put out the fires and that they too stay safe :)) and id like to thank GuineaUp for all her help too :))

Fingers crossed for all of you, that you be safe!!  That the damage is non existent or minimal, and that food and water stay available! 
(and that the internet stays working so we can hear from you how yr doing!) 

Thanks so much for the good wishes for all us Floridians! We need the prayers and blessings for this one.   

Also remember those in Georgia, South Carolina and nearby states that will have Irma issues after it leaves Florida - and those on the islands that have suffered so much damage.
Marly - my pleasure to help out and pass the word on your need for drops. I will gladly take any extras that come my way as well, in hopes of getting done before weather forces a shut down.

Guinea - I would love an underground bunker, but that doesn't work well in my area. I do keep a stock of emergency supplies though. Hope the fires have lessened for you and Brooke.

Thanks all for good wishes for fires to soon be extinguished. My Grandparents cabin(we no longer own) is in the path ofthe pier fire. It's right on the Tule river and holds so many precious memories of my childhood. Please pray for Springville and Doyle Springs. We do have some rain forcasted for Monday....but it may not come in time.

I am praying for all our farmers in Florida. I watched the news last night and Irma is a category 5(the worst) and is going to hit ALL of Florida.

Willow & MARLY - Are you leaving?? I'm praying for your safety.

Thinking of everyone in the path of the hurricanes! 
Marly and Willow, hope you are both okay!

Thanks for the good wishes AniE!  

Brooke - Thanks for the prayers! Sending prayers your way for rain and the protection of those towns.  I am sheltering in place, as I am not in an evac zone for storm surge or flooding and am on the west edge of the warning cone.  Forecast for my area is tropical storm winds beginning Sunday evening, with highest winds (up to hurricane force gusts) early Monday.  Power outages and tornado warnings probable, beginning Sunday and continuing through Monday evening at least.  Some good news with a drop to Cat 3 on the storm, though south Florida is still getting a hard time of it.

Blessing to you Marly - and anyone else in the path of Irma!

Holding on tight Guinea!  Wind is really picking up in my area now.

Marly is my neighbor, and I haven't seen her online yesterday or today. If all goes well, I hope to finish the event in the next few hours - barring power going down.

My daily prayer for MARLY and Willow!!!

Willow - I can't believe in your situation, you have the kindness to pray for us in CA. and our fires. Bless you!!! Since you are staying put, please be very careful. Do you have a plan B, in case water gets too high?
