Members,

As some of you know a Major Hurricane is to hit Florida tomorrow. I have received many e-mails from members. This is what we know.

The last forecast 10 minutes ago, puts the storm entering Florida where I live. Many other members are going to feel the storm as Hurricane winds and much rain/flooding is expect for all of Florida, due to the size of this storm.

I am all boarded up and will be in a walkin closet, when the worst starts, with my wife (7000 also) to wait out the storm.

thanks again for your concern.

Hi Fran,

I am hoping and praying you remain safe and well. I was stationed at Tyndall and MacDill in the 50's and weathered a couple of tropical storms, but never a hurricane. Take care my friend.

Best Wishes,

Chuck

I've just seen the warning on our News Bulletin - I'll be thinking of you and our other friends in Florida and hoping that you come through the ordeal safely. Maybe it will change course and head back out to sea......

Fran-

Best of luck during the storm--keep your hard hat on--I know we were concerned when they prdicted Charlie was going to hit the Tampa area--hopefully it will make a right turn and stay in the ocean
You'll be in our prayers.

Fran ... our thoughts and prayers are with you all ... I just would have felt better knowing you were out of there ...

I'm in Melbourne, just a few miles from Fran, we're riding it out here , and are all boarded up. I'm sure even in the best of scenario's we'll be without power for a bit. It has weakened some, let's hope that trend continues.

I am in Port Charlotte. My town was wrecked,but the wife and I didn't get much damage.At 10 feet,I am afraid of being flooded with this one.
Good luck to all of us.

Rain could mean disaster for many in Florida. The storm movement has slowed, which means it will stay longer in areas it passes over, which will be most of Florida.

Predicted rainfall. 10 to 20 inches.

I could be wrong, but I think most of Florida is only 1 or 2 feet above sea level.
