Ivan! Jeanne! & Karl & Dennis The Menace & Katrina

I got gas this morning...no problem, but by noontime there wasn't a drop left in St Lucie.

Hi, Occum...so yall are on the 4th floor of a condo (a steel and concrete building)? How far from the water? And with windows facing east or west?
I'm trying to think about what I would do if I were there. I reckon that, if I hadn't left by yesterday morning and the building was pretty substantial, I would stay.
I've still got a crummy map of FL, so I'm having trouble figuring out who is where. Good luck to yall' -rjb-

Im in Jupiter in north palm beach. The forecast has changed in my favor but still its gunna be one hell of a ride...

I'm in Port St Lucie

You north of Indiantown road?

Those first four words... reminded me of an old relative.

Hope that you and O'Bill and all the rest of the Florida contingent stay safe wherever you've chosen to be. These storms are so unpredictable... perhaps Frances will decide to veer some new direction. I did hear she's settled down a little. That was good news.

We'll be riding out the storm with you vicariously... I'm feeling a little nervous myself and thinking of buying a couple of flashlights and some batteries... just for solidarity's sake.

Make sure you're up high kids.



that's over 15 feet!

Bless you sweetie...

Phoenix, this isn't helping you.

wow! panz. I read Condominium. McDonald and his Travis McGee...and his copper colored sea. Ought to read Phoenix Island sometimes..Yikes!



Damn it, Bill. Quit showing them maps...

Night, yawl.

Panzade is the guy right in the crosshairs... a little north of the big lake Okeechobee. I'm do east on the water... but on the 4rth floor behind serious storm shutters... here:

(anybody wants property here, that picture is courtesy of a realtor who lives in the building)
Looking forward to quite a show.

night queeny

I didn't show that one, Panzade did!
Nite.

chuckle...like havin yo' mamma scold you Bill?

Stop bustin on me or I'm tellin.

It just occurred to me; if we get a 15 foot storm surge, my car is toast... but I think west, flooding is just as much a danger.

. BTW looks like landing point has shifted to Melbourne area in the simulation

Maybe she's turning North after all. But maybe not. Don't let your guard down.

hey! Will your car fit in the service elevator?

G'night? Isn't this a little early? Anyway, sweet dreams, Letty and all. Be safe!

O'Bill -- That looks like a nice strong building... and a gorgeous view. I'll quit worrying so much about you and concentrate on Panzade. I'd think that Lake Okeechobee would slow down the winds, but what do I know? About earthquakes, I could tell you. About hurricanes... not so much.

My Daytona friends' daughter lives in Melbourne and as of 10 this morning, she was planning to ride it out. . . I hope that was a wise decision.

My good thoughts and hopes go out to all of you over there.
