Patrick Duffy Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 A WNW turn. Better than nothing I guess. Just wish it would make a move N sooner than later. The longer it takes the worse it will be for the coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a damned shame if that got wiped of the face of the Earth. Trust me. We will all end up paying for it to rebuilt it ASAP. Speaking of Mar-a-Lago, I'm surprised this guy wasn't put in charge of NOAA. He's got some real, common sense solutions to these here hurricane issues.

Nextmanup Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Just got back from goofing around at the beach in Juno Beach, FL...this is the northern suburbs of West Palm Beach. There are hundreds of people over there checking out the waves, some surfers enjoying the big waves and in general tons of activity. Hard to find parking spots. The eye of the hurricane right now is about dead even with where I am in terms of latitude, and it's about 95 miles from here. When the hurricane spins and weather bands hit us from the north, the wind picks up for a bit and we get a little rain, but that's it. This entire storm is going to amount to a non-story for this part of FL. I just opened up the storm shutters on the window where I am working to get some daylight in here. It's actually calm and quiet outside. I am thinking of Exiled in Illinois' sister who evacuated up in Stuart. That was probably unnecessary, but better safe than sorry. Sounds like the weather will hit is peak of severity for me around 2:00am tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was curious if there ever was an Eric (my name). I found this: On January 16, the storm developed-hurricane-force winds and Eric began to undergo rapid deepening. ... Shortly after its peak, Eric began to weaken steadily, and by January 20, Severe Tropical Cyclone Eric had ceased to exist Yep, pretty much the story of my life. ? My name is Andrew. They're not allowed to name storms after me anymore 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T&C Posted September 2, 2019 Author Share Posted September 2, 2019 (edited) Funny, watching different Florida news stations with the 5pm update some call it stationary and some call it moving at 0 mph.

I almost went there for lunch last Wednesday but couldn't get there before they closed until dinner. Russell is a great guy and makes terrific Thai Food---at least for this area. He's not afraid to go for it with the heat, either, if you ask him to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using Florida internet... that version of Sugar Magnolia was way sped up, sounds like a cartoon... maybe should consider Alabama internet, where things are a bit slower. From the Buff... kind of stuck here for now anyways. Edited September 2, 2019 by T&C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
