That is NOT me discounting the destruction that a CAT 3/4 hurricane can & will bring.

Think it's back to a 5 now

no worries, they have a system to keep out up to 20 feet of storm surge. its pretty amazing.

first thing I thought was, why don't more places use this system?

its too late to get out within Florida, N0 gas. No hotels in the whole damn state.

Gas is on the governor. Prior governors used police escorts to get the gas to the pumps. Its one if the most crucial items, You cant flee the storm without gas, He decided not to this time and its made things way worse.

It's weird they think it's going to come in at a 3, it's literally going to spend 8-10 hours in the warmest part of the Gulf.

I'm just getting back online from Helene in North Central Florida ( just north of Gainesville ).

Seems we may be lucky on this one.

Hope you are doing well. I would hate to go through that. Prayers.

I've seen multiple news videos on Twitter today showing police escorts for gas tankers all over the state. Is that not actually happening or just not as much or as soon as would have been ideal?

So....how about the state be helpful and offer up a suggestion that doesn't require something as unlikely as the entire state vacating.

South Florida… Miami/Broward/Palm Beach will have minimal impacts.

Daughter made it to Tallahassee.

Took the back way and still took her eight hours for a four hour drive.

Praying her home (10 minutes inland) survives the storm.

Damn, glad to hear she made it out and didn't have too much of an issue.
