Is not good. This is probably at least a week without power not good. This is massively messy not good, lost roofs not good. This is "if that huge oak tree in front of my building comes down on it, I'm so screwed," not good. We are in Central FL, and it will have slowed a bit before it gets here, but even a Category 1 makes a hell of a mess, and this is not projected to slow down that much. South FL will of course have it much worse, but we are in a whole new experience here. A storm of this magnitude has never plowed up the middle of the state, and nobody knows what it will do.
Everybody please send positive thoughts to send this bitch east again. We need a last minute jog east.
Praying, you betcha. My mother is at ground zero aka Homestead, Fla and is refusing to leave. fuckity fuck. Praying you are spared even though I know she won't be. xo.
ReplyDeleteOMG!! I know of a couple of other people who have decided to ride it out. We are of course where people evacuate to!!
DeleteDoing my best worrying for you!

ReplyDeleteGood lord Caroline. I cant believe anyone would stay in Homestead after Andrew. I had a friend who lived through that and a breezy day would make her ill thereafter. I will be adding your mother to the worry beads with Catherine.
