Get the exact address and if they have the Apple phones that can do it tell them how to use satellite text. Keep working on them to leave.

Thanks TheOcean. They should be good as long as the aftermath isn't too horrible.

Interesting, the 18z runs of the usually aggressive HAFS models are going to be too weak at 00z.

I can’t keep up with everyone — is this your home or are they on vacation?

Is the intensification rate look correct at least? Just initialized high?

They seem a touch closer to the Yucatan, too.

I’ve had 6 inches of rain in Fort Lauderdale since Friday morning. Not looking forward to another 12 inches.

2 miles from the beach taking a cat 3/4 on the nose. I can tell you the aftermath is definitely going to be horrible.

What's this little nugget in the path of Milton just North of the Yucatan...and who has a house there?
Scorpion Reef. It’s a national park containing a bunch of coral reefs. It has 5 small islands, the one you posted with the building is Isla Perez. It’s a lighthouse and Mexican Navy outpost

Here's the ways to get warnings if you want to add it to the OP again, Rummy.
Ways to get severe weather warnings practically anywhere in the US:
1. A NOAA weather radio
-This is the best option for any type of weather warning no matter where you are in the country. They have a battery backup and will work even when the power is out or cell towers are down. You can also get portable radios that are similar to two-way radios that you can carry anywhere.
2. Your chosen local weather person on your favorite local news channel
-Any of them worth a damn will be live when there is an active tornado warning, some are live for severe thunderstorms that merit coverage.
3. Radio simulcast of your local news/weather affiliate coverage
-For any major weather events many channels are carried live on a partner radio station.
4. Livestream coverage from the above on Facebook, YouTube, websites, etc.
-Most good weather coverage channels will at least stream their coverage to Facebook or their own website or weather app.
5. News affiliated weather apps
-These will give you both direct warning and coverage of ongoing weather events. You can adjust settings to follow your location and get all pertinent warnings for the area you are in.
6. Following the Xwitter account of the National Weather Service office that is responsible for the area you live in, work in, or are visiting
-You can turn on notifications that will give you every single warning that is issued for your area. It will be sent to you automatically. If you are anywhere in the United States or its territories there is a NWS office that covers the area.
7. Weather Apps
-Some (not all) weather apps for your phone will send out warnings that are catered to the area you are in at the time. If you have cell service, it works.
8. The EAS system on your cell phone
-If you do not turn it off it will work to alert you for tornado warnings and destructive severe thunderstorm warnings.
