The entire Florida Peninsula has begun to experience Hurricane Irma following landfall at Marco Island. Thousands of Floridians who evacuated the Atlantic cost to Gulf Coast areas found their safe shelter under direct threat from Hurricane Irma as the forecast shifted W Friday night and Saturday. Prayers for all in the storm path.

Stay safe. Praying.
Thank you!
Bodleian Girl would have fun with a little HT.
Even without a license, you can keep up with your local conditions in emergencies.
I’m amazed at the people with wireless connection calling and streaming live from places like Naples when the eye was passing through. I lose my connection in some wind from a summer thunderstorm. :/
Can you hear me now?
You are welcome. I thank you and all for keeping us informed. I’ve been lurking and praying for all in the path.
Is he firefighting? I haven’t been paying attention to the fires in other parts of OR, only the one near me.
Is that right.. I didn’t know that! The code is noticeably seldom mentioned, which means it could return one day as classified information top secret. Call it “classic”. :)
thx..
Hearing from Naples, and here comes the storm surge. not good!
Good luck to you. Looks like it is weakening some.
am still floating, we’re having some pretty serious wind gusts and i can no longer see the docks at either of the 2 marinas
am guessing we’re seein 80mph gusts
and i’m tired
Yes, me, too. Especially because (from what I’m hearing) they aren’t hearing much out of Key West.
LOL. No, he’s playing his banjo for a bunch of eco-tourists.
It is weakening and while the storm surge in places like Naples is not great it’s way less than predicted.
Excellent.
That’s why you can’t beat a portable general coverage, all band receiver with ALL the HF amateur radio bands.
It’s always connected.
Irma to be only a Cat 1 by the time it hits Tampa now.
They have turned on all hot spots and wifi everywhere.. pretty cool.
