My power just came back on in east broward. Let's see how long that lasts...

^^^^ Good thinking! Beats losing your roof..the bad news is it will take his neighbors roofs flying away to prove to his wife that this was not just another of his hair brained ideas.....

Stay safe all.

Isn't Jose tracking to go up the east coast and miss Florida?

 

[FSU Truth]

This you?

No, but I have seen others...

One taped pictures on the noles all over his house and mentioned..."Hurricanes haven't been able to get past it for years..."

It the current track sticks it looks like the Eye will pass right over me.

I built my house with Hurricanes (block, poured concrete pillars) in mind...at this point, I fear leaving will just end up being more dangerous. I have more than enough food, water, and provisions. All that is left to do is put the pool furniture in the garage, makes sure the room my mother and my in-laws are comfortable. Tomorrow evening, I will sit in my kitchen with a cold beer, chips, and dip and watch the trees on the preserve get uprooted.

Good luck to all...hopefully next week we all will all be on here safe and telling stories of our experience.

Stay safe brother!

[SkapePhin]

This is absolutely crazy!

What the hell? Are we sure that's legit and not some old video from somewhere else? It's sucking up the ocean water from the Bahamas?

 

[TheJetsBlow]

North and central broward watch out. Massive band coming and tornado warning.

 

[AL R]

How is everyone holding up? The bands are starting to come.

This is absolutely crazy!

Wholly Mother of God, can that really happen? Jesus that is like the movie "Battle Los Angeles" where the aliens were taking all the water. Daaaaaaanm!!!

 

[Michael Scott]

Careful of those tornado cones, fellas. Be on the lookout for those as well.

Probably gonna be a lot of those 'bursts' especially on the NE quadrant of Irma.

We have to stop this everybody has to evacuate thing.

Well, I'm glad they are here with us in Jax as Irma is supposed to make landfall b/w Naples and Tampa. Left in the middle of the night when there was no traffic and made it in 5 hours. Still have family in Ft Laud, WPB, and Orlando though.

Doesn't help when you have idiot neighbors who ignore the dangers and leave out patio furniture and yard decorations that serve as projectiles either. Tornadoes also DGAF about Cat 4 or 5 buildings, which was the cause for most of the destruction during Andrew. Storm surges also pose great threats which was also the cause for their evac.

Whoever is holding out, all the best.
