I hope you don't have a glass top table in the pool.
I did the same thing for Gustav and managed to shatter the glass IN the pool while trying to get it out of the pool by myself. I should have waited for help, but I like to get things done.
That certainly was a fun job cleaning up that mess.

I'm calling the mayor of Mobile and telling him you said to evacuate Mobile.

Yeah flooding was bad in Venice two weeks ago. Like I said, I have a lot of clients in Venice and know quite a number of people there if she stays put and you need someone to check on her.
I'm very worried about the elderly down there

I'm worried about the manatees as well. They're not the brightest.

no its never going to turn north or dissapate. its going to travel on the same track west from now to the end of time.

I hate having to sift through the dumbasses on hurricane threads just to find the informative posts from people who know what they're talking about.
No it hasn't turned north yet, but reading some idiots around here, it never will.

Eventually it would fall off the edge of the flat earth, right? Or does it bounce back in like an old school game of pong?

It does have a glass top. The maintainence people at the CC put it in the pool and will get it out.

It might be time for a little geography lesson on the state of Florida.
Clearwater (Tampa area) is roughly 150 miles along the coast from Naples, but it is only 55 miles east from a longitude standpoint. Irma's eye has fluctuated between 15-30 miles. If the center of Irma misses the Clearwater area, Florida curves back west in the Big Bend area and you're not looking at a landfall until the Ocala area.
Another thing to note is the furthest east the NHC had the track forecast on Sunday (during the Wednesday evening discussion) is still less than 150 miles from where they're suggesting Irma will be now on Sunday. That is also inside their margin of error on a 48 hour forecast.
tl;dr version - the NHC has "missed" Irma's turn north by the distance between New Orleans and Lafayette, but that is the difference between a "landfall" in the Carolinas and a landfall in Naples/Tampa/Ocala. Florida's geography exaggerates the error.

Why? Bc y'all only want people in here who swear by the "models"? Meanwhile the people are watching these models shift west for days and being chastised for having the audacity to call a spade a spade? Sorry we aren't a bunch of sheep who blindly follow these things that have been repeatedly wrong all week
