I'm getting quite a few PMs about what to expect in ___ area.
I don't mind the PMs but there are over 910 people on site right now.

If you were in Florida last year and went through any of the Hurricanes that pummeled the state.
Think and plan on the idea that it will get Bad.
Set your sights and thinking one step above that level.

Then hope and pray that it doesn't get there. If it does...you are prepared right now.

If the weather will permit it where you live. Make a quick check around the house for anything that will blow....anything.
Then get your 'safe room' in order so you can go there at a moments notice.
That means finding a mattress to shield/ cover yourself with.

Okay Jim Cantore just said it!..."You Need To Seek Shelter Before Midnight Tonight."
I didn't hear him say an exact location. If you are in or on the Florida Peninsula.It wouldn't be a bad idea.

Oh and go ahead and prepare the kids. Tell them it's going to get really, really Bad. In whatever manner you wish. So they can be somewhat prepared for it.
