Tropical Storm Isaias developed in the Eastern Caribbean Sea. All interests along the Florida Peninsula should be prepared for deteriorating weather conditions by Saturday.
For linguistics aficionados, the National Hurricane Center uses the four-syllable pronunciation ees-ah-EE-ahs. The name Isaias is Spanish for Isaiah. To hear a meteorologist pronounce Isaias: NWS Melbourne.

OK, I am near Jupiter. Rt in the middle of the FL advisory. I guess I be taking a good look at the situation first thing Friday morning. I don’t want to shutter!! I did get gas today, covid supplies are strong, water...Please stop the world!
I’ll be driving over to Martin Co. tomorrow. Let’s hope current track holds east of the coast.
thanks I hope this track holds. We will get a pass here in the keys. We need one had our share of storms.
Is that what is causing the slow down?
Yes. I’m two counties north, but I’ll take an offshore with tropical storm force winds that arrives late Sat. night/ early Sun. morning.
Not good news about the pharm drug manufacturing.
Who in their right mind thinks that building on a flood plain is a good idea?
We got tired of shuttering and finally got hurricane proof windows!
Guess we get to see if they work!
Thanks for that excellent link.
We’ve run this sort of discussion thread for near twenty years. We’ve got the social implications worked out.
Even if this thing tracks to the west along with getting the dirty side, you will be alright due to speed, angle, and intensity for the most part (Gone through many ‘canes in my lifetime).
Shutter up though for piece of mind and preparing for the worst, better to be safe than people thinking what you are preparing for is overkill.
Weaker storms have a tendency to be slaves to the “stream”/pressure patterns. Stronger ones will succumb as well but throw a wrench or two with their internal strength. Both slow down when a radical change of direction occurs (Due to pressure patterns).

Our track on Isaias parallels David (1979) by 75-100 miles to the right, but by staying over the water rather than coming into Fla, This will be stronger to the north,so we have it going to a cat 2

Thank you! Glad to see you back for another season.
Sent the crew down to the beach house to bring in the stuff that could get blown away or tear screens.
Other than that, time to settle down and follow your thread.
Thank you for checking in! Good to see you.
