The entire Florida Peninsula and points north are poised to experience Hurricane Irma after the storm hugged Cuba's northern coastline. 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. Hurricane Irma's prolonged interaction with Cuba diminished its strength to Category 3.
Irma is forecast to increase in strength as it crosses the FL Straits. The Florida Keys experienced strong outer bands while Irma grazed the N Cuba coastline.

Hi Fatima. Ltns.
:-)
That is the one that I am seeing. Not good for App.
I will not give a response of any kind that stirs a person up. Not anymore. It is better to just disagree with the person than to make ad hominem attacks.
Yes it is.
It is and we have a ringside seat.
As long as the Key West radar stays up.
:-)
Gotta run to bed.Many Florida FReepers will be losing power.Know that you are in our prayers.((((Hugs))))Fatima
I can’t believe anybody would actually stay in Key West in these conditions. The whole island isn’t more than about 12 feet or so above sea level, if I’m not mistaken.
Yes I realize that the knowledge you fellas have is light years ahead of what I have. I just made some guesses. I never represented myself as a forecaster. You guys are really wound up tonight. Wow.
Key West will be hell.
Well, I will rake your arse over the coals for this one. Only a jackass would make a vanity post about a projected hurricane track based only on his uninformed opinion, and only a jackass would then whine about being called to the carpet for doing such after the fact. If you had a modicum of honor, you would not be whining like a little bitch for being called out for such.
Hi Beautiful,Bed is calling.Have an awards ceremony tomorrow and #3 child will be receiving one.Keep up the good work FRiend.Night.
PS I ran out of people to tell off :)
Maybe CXS could do a train experiment? Nah...
Your own post earlier in this thread: "All forecasters are entitled to their opinions. " Gawd, you can't even maintain a coherent train of thought. Go find a nice rock to crawl under. You have been trashed with your own words.
sadly my cousin Tim is on Key West. He lives on a boat alone after his dog just died and life has not been real kind to him. He tied his boat somewhere near some trees...don’t know what that meant and he was searching for shelter on the island (as of early this morning). If you have a moment would really appreciate a prayer for him...thanks!
THIS is what I shoulda been reading when I was going “turned yet, nope” for 3 days.
Right front eyewall, all the way. To where...Corpus?
That’s not a forecast, that’s a Russian Plot.
Well, anyone making a guess as to where it is going, I should have said. Still reading and occasionally posting. I like Free Republic.
Is this real? He lost his dog and is stuck there?
How do you know this?
