What the heck. I’ve been checking on Ian’s progress all day- all over the place. The question of course- when will it turn? Meanwhile, my batteries from last year are good.
I was watching people scramble for water this week and realized Charley was the only hurricane that took out our water supply in Seminole County. Power out for 2 weeks- even our (phone) land line was down. It was brutal. But we got through it with our neighbors. We shared supplies and food, lots of hilarity and cookouts. We’ve had plenty of hurricanes since- none took out the water.
Thanks for checking in. No good news with the forecast track. If Ian lands on or just north of St. Pete, that is worst case for Tampa Bay. Local Tampa Bay seasoned weatherman looks worried tonight.
Just saw a story that Bethune-Cookman University in Daytona Beach is closed down with mandatory evacuation for the storm. The poor students are ticked off, with no money to buy airline tickets home.
