Re: Irene the Year's first Hurricane, Passes Over Puerto Rico

The Florida Peninsula is still in the Cone. And using the latest NHC guidance Irene will be a Major Hurricane just south of 25N Latitude or Andros Island, Bahamas at Sunrise on Thursday Morning.

Irene is Forecast travel the entire length of the Florida Peninsula as a Category 3 Major Hurricane.
This means that almost everyone in the Cone will experience Tropical Storm Force winds for a prolonged time. As much as 24 hours.
Please take the time now and prepare a 3 Day Kit. Just in case. You can always drink the bottled water later and eat the canned goods. Don't forget the can opener. Being hungry with no can opener and lots of canned food is not a pleasant feeling.
More to follow...
