"Here in Atlanta we’re only supposed to get 40+ mph winds and 2-5 inches of rain Monday evening/Tuesday morning."

Actually...you might wanna do a reset on that:

@RyanMaue, 10 minutes ago:

Potential for hurricane force wind gusts (> 74 mph) All of Florida peninsula + panhandle Tallahassee --> Jax Most of Georgia inc Atlanta

Look at Hose in that graph.

Bastardi still forecasting Irma to INCREASE in intensity over the Florida Straits before it scoots up the west side of the Florida peninsula.

I was on the optimistic end of the forecast.

Trust me, I’m concerned and being pro-active!
Just came up from the basement putting 2 liter coke bottles of water in my chest freezer as it’s only 3/4 filled. Gunna freeze additional ones for my two frigs in case we lose power.
I’ll canvas the yard tomorrow and inspect gutters and make sure my French ditches are deluge ready. Sunday I’ll tuck away the outdoor potted plants.

Every little bit helps.
I stay in perpetual “prepper” mode.
