Apartment/townhouse complex wont allow us to put up shutters claiming windows are fine with hurricane impact windows.

 

Hopefully they'll be fine in this

If you manipulate that Ventusky map to show wave height...holy crap...that biggest I've seen is 50.7 feet.  That's a big ass wave.  When it strengthens after crossing the islands I'm sure they'll be bigger than that.

JFC...

 

Its been decades since is spent any significant time in Fl but is there any point in the state that's 50 ft above sea level?  I cant imagine anything south of Oceechobee being that high.

Sister lives in key west....she left about 80% of her items there. She fully expects to not have anything when she gets back. 

Luckly she listened and left Wednesday to Orlando and flew up to Va on Thursday. 

She told me a coworker of hers is staying with her husband on the island. I don't understand

The thing keeps shifting west, now making landfall south of Naples.  This trend continues and it is going to be very bad here

Looks to be almost making landfall in Cuba

Hoping that breaks it down a bit

Got 2 buddies riding it out in Key West

If you're south of West Palm and didn't leave you're insane.

No reason to stay, none.

I hope those people that stayed in the keys kept some flotation devices...  not being silly, read stories about Hurricane Hazel.

130 is the top of a CAT 3, but they are listing still as CAT 4

Now, it could raise just a bit going over clear water, but why not call it what it is?

[Jangler]

what is the difference between a cat3 and a cat4? 1mph...
