Btw... My sister doesn’t have storm shutters. Anyway, they are retired and they plan to go down as soon as possible if there is damage.
Sure hope the area fares ok. I will be obsessively checking this thread until it’s all over. Great links from people. I’ve bookmarked the Melbourne twitter page. My FIL (and his lady friend) DO have hurricane shutters and s generator so we’re not supposed to worry. “We’re fine!” Ugh.
