Re Zello — do you know if it uses data from you plan, or is it similar to regular talk/text features?
To: All
Heard from a friend that mandatory evacuation of Hutchinson Island (barrier island in Martin Co and St. Lucie Co) has been rescinded due to the predicted path moving further and further west.
Can anyone confirm?

“Still do not understand why they did not make all lanes northbound.”
Yesterday, someone (maybe Gov. Scott) said they need the southbound lanes open going south to let in the rescue people, nurses, electrical crews from other states, etc.

Yesterday I heard that Indiana and Florida have some kind of reciprocity agreement to assist each other. Apparently, Indiana was invaluable after other disasters in Florida, and they have a good working relationship.

It was also the fuel issue. Contraflow was delayed so they could keep getting gasoline to areas that needed it.

Yes; fuel, too. Someone had mentioned that fuel trucks were using southbound lanes to provide gas to cars that had run out going north. I don’t if that’s true or not, but it does make sense.
To: John S Mosby
There are factors here well beyond wind speed. Katrina was 'only' a Cat 3 but had so much surge that it caused more damage in Mississippi than Camille. Likewise with Ike - it wasn't technically a major hurricane at landfall but it was the third most damaging hurricane prior to Harvey and Irma this year. Sandy wasn't even technically a hurricane at landfall. Also, the overall size of the storm matters a lot also. Camille and Labor Day were fairly compact, intense storms. Katrina and Ike and Sandy were large, so is Irma. And finally, there are far more people (and real estate) in the Gulf than there were for Camille and Labor Day. You cannot view storms through the single keyhole of wind speed.
Are the TV mets hyping this? Of course. Does that mean the underlying danger is not real? Of course not.

Can’t seem to get it to work for me, even with ad blocker turned off. Is it subscription only?

1935 went from a Cat 1 to a Cat 5 in about 24 hours in the same waters where Irma is now.

The Florida NG has been called up. All of them.
