If it's going to be as bad as they say, then it's gonna be an ugly storm. Y'all from Tampa on up in the Big Bend and the Panhandle be careful and take good care. Heck, as big as this one is forecast to be, everyone in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, South Carolina and Tennessee take care!

so true,Pipe. I m on the west side of the projected landfall. Hope that holds. Got the generator in place and plugged into power panel, chili in the crock pot, done everything i can do outside.

Good news is it s moving fast, so its a 4-5 hour event for us, gonna slow down one it goes inland.

Doing to do but hunker down now

Stay safe down there. Looks like NC might be spared for the most part. I hope you make out OK Phat, definitely not your first rodeo.

The morning after,All good. Storm actually went little further east than predicted. Lotta rain with this thing.

Got family in Valdosta,Ga. They had the eye go right over them. Third storm in 13 months that took the same path.

And another low forming between Cuba and Yucatán

Glad this one didn’t smack you. I think I recall a few years back, you had some serious damage to deal with.
