I am sure they have diverted to safe waters.....that’s what ours did.

That's good to know...
..kind of like a pilot flying above the storm...

Living in Florida for 30 plus years has been reasonably calm believe it or not...

..We have had few troubles with hurricanes on our side of the peninsula....

..until that slew 3 years ago.

The devastation it brought the south end of the county was heartbreaking...

..two friends lost their roofs!!!!

..a church steeple was torn off and flung point down into the roof of the church....

...Power off, lines down, houses smashed in, Salvation Army trucks all over giving water, tarps for the roofs, etc.

...people in our neighborhood who rode it out got very scared, and said they wouldn't do it again.

Our daughter was pregnant with our first grandchild...

..so we evacuated twice, taking them with us....

If this is the monster storm they're predicting at the moment, it will be awful.
