Wow you're thinking WAY ahead. Let's see how it holds up to the land crossing before we start projecting effects on ourselves...I'm anxious but not that anxious

Let's see if the system will hold its own after it migrates from land. I'll certainly do any yard work before Saturday, in any event.

Nope.
There is no realistic scenario that makes this thing a threat to Florida...too much wind shear would have to be overcome for any significant type of storm to affect FL...the Keys might be the one exception with a glancing blow from a feeder band or two, but a strike to FL just doesn't look possible at this time, and I personally think that it won't survive the trip across the mountains very well either.

Very interesting scenario playing out with TS Adrian. I thought my eyes were going googly when I saw it heading EAST and not WEST. Didn't I just get off this train 5 minutes ago? Who bought me a return ticket? 
I'm not making any predictions with Adrian because I personally think she has a lot of obstacles to get through before Florida would even become a focus in this unusual event. If she makes it across the mountains and into the Yucatan Peninisula, I can tell you that then it will become interesting. Having just returned from a 8 day vacation in Cancun in April, the water there is like bath water and I'm sure it's even warmer now.
I'm not sure who asked about the adivisories coming out every 3 hours, but since they have now put up watches along the coastlines the answer is "yes". Hope that helps!
As for the media not picking it up, they're all too involved with Wacko Jacko, the "nuclear" showdown in Washington, and the Newsweak story. Weather? What weather?
I will say this: after last year's hurricane season, I will not be surprised by anything that happens this year.

I just meant the media in general, that's all. Janice Dean the Weather Machine is always on top of things. ;-)

Frank may get early release, at least that's what I've heard in the rumor mill. 
Yes, a bit of mischief indeed! I don't know if there's a way to top off last season, but if this is any indication, .......... 
Good to be back on the boards! I've been fighting a nasty case of facial neuralgia called TN which causes a shocking sensation and is indeed very unpleasant. I'm on some heavy duty meds to keep it at bay. I'm blaming it on last year's season since I had to slap myself on that side of the face so many times to keep myself awake! This is about the time when the meds kick in and kick butt, so if you don't hear from me for a couple of hours, I'm OUT.  I have to take them after the kids leave in the morning so I can be functional when they get home, and then again at night after they go to bed. It's a real pain in the face.
It will be interesting to watch and see what happens with Adrian. Hopefully, no lives will be lost, although we know what happens with rains in the mountainous area.
