Miami, poured for five minutes and sky was blue a minute later

Everyone has been calm here for the last few hours as they changed the storm direction to the NW. Mind you everyone knows it could turn back...but it was a welcome breathing spell.

Mayfield on TV with Norcross just now said the information they just got back from recon shows the ridge is building in strong in front of the storm and it possibly is slowing down because of that and they are still expecting it to bend back towards the west sometime down the line. When is the question.

Funny because....when it started pouring.. people everywhere on the streets were running like the storm was coming.

A wake up call I think.. saw people putting up shutters finally.

Shelters almost filled and the Home Depot is empty with only customers scrounging around for anything they can get their hands on.

Going out a bit.. relaxing a bit.. while I can.. Will stay up late watching the storm like last night.

Poor San Salvador
