ABC Tampa just said you and Lanier will get 87 gusts, and I will get 103. Y'all are way closer to the beast.

Geography, and whatnot.

Seas are so turbulent that water temp dropped more than 2 degrees. Probably stirring up water from 100 feet down.

Wow. This storm has been something to watch over the past 24 hours. Any updated info on storm surges? That thing has to be bulldozing walls of water.

Checking in from Bonita Springs, in between Naples and Fort Myers. Looks like a fun day ahead.


Best of luck to you and yours. Hopefully FPL can get your power back up and running shortly after.

Love the way that Florida responds though. They do as well as can be done

Bet you’re glad Gavin Newsome isn’t your governor. Good luck.

Most of our homes built in the past 10 years have been built to 155mph “Miami-Dade” code. I wonder if there are insurance/legal implications for officially observed CAT 5 designations.

At least FPL is not Entergy, FPL doesn’t seem like a company that would dick around and leave rotten poles for years waiting for hurricanes to do it’s dirty work and pass on routine maintenance as a Storm restoration charge.

You would be correct. Love my governor. But in reality, on both sides of the aisle people in this state know how to respond to a hurricane. It is one of the most pleasant aspects of living here.

After Irma, FPL came out while the power box in between my neighbor and my yard was still submerged, cut the lock and flipped a switch to turn the power back on, two weeks after the storm. Clearly, I would NEVER think about doing that myself, this time around. Although, I did facedown a bobcat two weeks ago and got him to release a duck, who is still alive. So, maybe I would.
