I'm actually nervous now.

If that thing doesn't turn by morning then the eye is going right over us. Beach erosion is already noticeable down South with the storm surge proceeding the storm and the wind here is blowing pretty steadily, a gust just knocked my trashcan over outside.

For anyone wondering, that little bump on the east side of Florida is the space center and South of that is Merritt Island. I live directly on the inland side of those barrier islands. It's still so far away :giveup:

This is going to be bad :/

My mom just evacuated from Merritt Island today! Hope everything’s going well where you’re at.... 

i live in Orlando near Disney so I’m good. 

I just hope for the best with all that erosion in cocoa and new Smyrna as well as the rest of the beaches! Also thinking about the people in the Bahamas 💕

Hey y’all I’m from Florida! 👋 

currently at my in-laws’ house on the west coast of Florida. My mom lives near cocoa beach and had to evacuate. I live in the Orlando area so didn’t have to evacuate but still over at the in-laws for a long weekend! 

It will be interesting to see what happens.

 

When hurricane Irma blew through I was in Toronto seeing the Joanne World Tour and then Gaga at TIFF!! We were stuck in Toronto bc there were no flights allowed back to FL! 

 

Fun fact- I’m a teacher and I taught 2nd grade for 3 years. It’s actually a part of the Florida science curriculum to go over natural emergency protocols! So Floridian of us...

Hoping for the best and thinking of everyone in the Bahamas 💕 

North Carolina should do this.  Weather is in the 5th grade curriculum  and I just made sure to teach about how to prepare for emergencies included in that.  It's more important that children what to do more so than can explain the jet stream, etc.

This storm is so beautiful, it's super dangerous. 

Latest track, as of 5pm.

It’s very frustrating waiting for it to move because an unexpected movement can have severe consequence. I live in central Florida (maybe a half hour south west of Disney).

My husband and I were just discussing this.  The fact that is is stationary is devastating for the Bahamas, but also can really affect the rest of the track.

We're sitting here at the river and this water is moving :air: the sea wall on the river side park here is deff going to be under water.

Wind is blowing and those 10-30 second rain spurts are here. And it's still...what? 200 miles away? :air:

All three major models (GFS, HWRF, HMON) show it not hitting Florida directly but do show it hitting North Carolina. Stay safe
