I will, Brian. I know we will lose power, for how long I don't know. But now with the new projected path it will get Parnell and Roger the worse and then where I live to the north is dead center in the path. It is going to get ugly unless it does something weird.

Hey Eddie, have fun. Why do I get the feeling you are going to enjoy this? The humanity aside, the experience always was awesome to me.

Here we go.  Getting nasty out there now.  We are bunkered into the container and ready to go.  Our biggest concern now is surge this evening/tonight.  Check in when possible.

Our prayers are with you guys and gals. Let us know what you need when you can pop your head out'
I would like to think the surge would have been worse if she came in on the east coast. I hope it is not so bad.
I know water-tarps and generators are some things. There will be plenty of others.
Perhaps we all here could kick in to a kitty?

Good luck Parnell.   Maybe some pontoons would have been a good addition to the container.

Steve has already dealt with the wall and Roger is bunkered down in a wastewater facility he used to run. They have been on generator power for hours. The really bad stuff won't hit me till about 2 AM. The power shut off once but came back on so we still have it for awhile. The weather forecast is for the Eye to pass over Tampa or between tampa and Lakeland. When that happens we are going to get hit by the Hurricane Wall winds in Lakeland. I'm sure I will lose power and maybe my roof and other stuff when that happens. Guess I'll see how lucky we are, then.  :OK

I heard about 5 million are without power in Florida right now so we probably won't hear for a while. I think it hit Jacksonville pretty hard. It started here about an hour or two ago, but they've downgraded to a tropical storm.
