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.

Ghetto Blacks aren’t known for their ability to think.
Scuttlebutt is very bad. Floridians are already organizing repair teams to get down there afterward. False rumor that a bridge was down. Police verified it was not down.
So does the eye getting smaller mean it is strengthening? I’ve read both on these threads, someone said the eyewall is growing in size meaning it is strengthening. It can’t be both.
Meanwhile, in Ft. Lauderdale, Looting is Well Underway
WATCH: Looters in Fort Lauderdale Steal from Stores During Hurricane Irma
Some folks gots to have dere sneakers.
I went to lower my clam shell storm shutters, and they’re jammed tight. If there’s a lot of wind surges out of the south, I’m worried my windows will blow out. That would be a mess.
which dry cleaner and where in sarasota?
There is a cure for looters.
It’s called “Korean shopkeepers”.
Horde your Marmite! :)
Dirtboy has told us that the water returned and floated them again.
Lol.. I am too. Took a picture of the track saying knoxville was the target earlier this week.
I made it through the derrecho, so.. no worries. Of course I walked five miles home after midnight.
Just wondering if you have a generator...
What’s with this obsession of shoes?
I heard it is expected to weaken to Category 1 by the time it hits St. Petersburg
what speed and tracking in this taking? I was following last night and there were updates it seemed every few minutes by Dirtboy. Now that it’s here I’m not seeing many updates and it’s getting brutal outside here in Sarasota.

Alright Mr Hiho, give me that donut money.
Because nothing says “just us” like a stolen pair of Air Jordans or a flat screen tee vee.
Good to hear - hope it happened quickly enough. Thanks.
that is too short a duration of a shift to make that statement. It could just be a wobble, the eye track has been doing such for days.
Can't imagine your frustration to have the shutters, and one is being a brat.
My garage door spring broke one time with hurricane looming. Door was jammed halfway open. Garage door guy came right out before the serious winds arrived.
