Just some rain here in Orlando, not worried at all about this one. Heading to north GA Friday morning, so I will be chasing it north.

See, that's the great thing about hurricane parties. You can bring anything you want to get you in that devil-may-care frame of mind that we native Floridians find essential.

Think: Lieutenant Dan in the storm.

It's a fundamental part of our culture, is what it is.

It was 72 here. Today maybe 80. That's what we call "Winter" in Florida.

Due south of me!

And it's still heading due north!





Meh. It'll turn northeastward in a few hours.

I was thinking the same thing. They went on for what seems like a month about it's potential. The last thing TWC said last night this was a CAT 1 that would die at landfall. I turn the TV on this morn. and now it's a CAT 4 about to hit the beaches as such.

You can't trust a thing they forecast these days.

Stay safe Scooter. Don't cut a finger or something stupid on a the beer cans.

Nah. It is still at 145 mph per the National Hurricane Center's 9am Central time update.

That makes it a 4.

Gusts are up to 155 inside the storm. My local live tv news just reported that.

But gusts are not Maximum SUSTAINED Winds.

Those are a one minute average, which is what the Saffir Simpson hurricane wind classification scale uses.
