    Yes - may all of our eastern coast members, particularly Floridians, be safe through Irma's move inland.
    We're praying for you.

    Everyone take precautions and don't chance it with something like this! I hope all are safe and their animals are as well. New models show it just missing us directly though with it being a 400 mile wide storm we are sure to get something from it. Traffic is horrendous here with everyone from Florida heading up. It's a mess.

    I do hope all in the path will be OK after it is over. I live near the ocean in NC but this time we will miss the worst of it. That will hit the middle or western part of NC, who ever heard of a hurricane in the mountains of NC? Not me. And those are tall mountains too.

    Thanks everyone, I'm directly in the path and have generators and a 12 volt pump ready to go to help keep my tanks running. Let's hope power is restored quickly and everyone stays safe.

    Yup, I've been thinking about my various friends in Florida for several days now too. I see this morning they're expecting the storm to go up the west coast of Florida, though as big as this storm is its probably a matter of bad or worse. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

    Hang on tight Pat.

    Thanks Keith, still hoping it continues to track towards the west but it is a monster and we will get something. The damn thing is so big that we could be under strong winds etc for 24 to 36 hours. That will feel like forever.

    Will keep you in my thoughts Pat, and as Keith said "Hang on tight". When you are able to please give up updates. Hope your horse is somewhere safe by now? Do you have a generator?

    Thanks Barb, we do. The horses stay home and loose. Locking them in a barn to panic is the worst thing you can do to them. It allows them to move out of danger if needed.

    This storm is definitely a monster. It's tracking seems to be trending west before the turn they keep calling for. I just hope all of us in it's path stay safe.

    My daughter, son-in-law & 2 grand daughters just moved to Naples! They have been there about a month! They had decided to stay until Friday morning when she woke up and found it had shifted and Naples became more of a direct hit. She has done a great job preparing for this but decided to leave. She took the kids to Orlando hoping it would be safer there. They are both Dr's and my son-in-law had to stay on call at the hospital

    What a welcome to Florida!

    Prayers are being said for everyone being affected! Stay safe!

    Going under the gun today and tonight. Will worsen thru-out the day and will be rocking and rolling over night Expect to lose power later today or over night. Suppose to calm down midday Monday. I will post if I can on the other side (via phone if possible). Hoping everyone makes it thru and try to stay safe everyone. My thoughts and prayers are with our gulf coast residents.

    Good luck Pat. We're already seeing heavy bands of rain up here and I'm a good 250 miles north of Miami. It looks like Irma will take a long, slow jog up the coast which is not good. At least if it came on land that would help slow it down. As long as the eye stays over warm water she'll maintain strong winds the whole time. Storm surge could be devastating. I hope all our Florida members are prepared! Good luck to everyone.
