Lots of live feeds on periscope.

Here's a link to the live stream for (professional storm chaser) Jeff Piotrowski:

Last I saw, he was on Marco (?) Island getting pounded pretty badly.

Just announced that Naples is about to get 130 mph sustained winds with 12-15' of surge.

Just a few miles from you Craig. Keep a sharp eye out brutha.

Yeah, he's got the genny up and running and his elevation is good.

Oh, this is the dude in the car wash near the blue shed from Harvey. Homeboy missed his calling too. He coulda been a drama queen. His voice raises when something changes.

The comments =

Jeff was talking about flying debris and it was only one thing, "That was my beer cooler top".

Tough to have a portable generator out in the storm like this. He'll have to wait for the wind and rain to die down.

I remember a vacation trip to KW, and from Homestead (south of Miami) at the first Key and driving all along Lake OK chubby on rt27? then across the state on 'gator' alley to Naples, then up the west coast and eventually back home....

even though a Florida native, THAT was the only time wife Linda has seen much of the state....and so to hear of the impending devastation on that prized region is just SAD to us.....and Craig with all his prep work, and lay of the land in his videos.....I just pray he don't flood out, much less anything worse.....

SO FAR we just rain and a few puffs and even a ray of SUN for some odd reason, it's just a Nor-easter as my wife calls them.....I"m SO sick of rain over the last several months.... we moved the cars to the front lawn, hopefully outta range of the trees....vette stays in garage.....trying to second guess mommy nature....

I'd forgot about this guy until you mentioned him. As soon as you mentioned him, I clicked on the feed and laughed for a while. He kept driving back and forth between the bridge and the Wal-Mart. Then, his feed dropped off. On another live shot that popped up, someone said, "Jeff found the car worsh".

Winds are picking up. Around 70MPH+ Gusts. Rain level is low. Constant barrage of Tornado warnings.
