Title: Hurricane Dorian Post by: BuccaneerBrad on August 29, 2019, 02:53:55 pm Everyone check in. Where are you and what are you doing to stay safe?
I'm in Bradenton and I've already got my hurricane supplies ready and my plywood precut. It's just a matter of putting it on the windows with pressure clips Title: Re: Hurricane Dorian Post by: Pappy13 on August 29, 2019, 03:25:59 pm I'm in Texas. What's a Hurricane? >:D
Title: Re: Hurricane Dorian Post by: Dave Gray on August 29, 2019, 03:29:13 pm It looks like I'm going to get a pretty good dose of it. I hope it curves a little bit North. This will be my first hurricane in my new house. I'm nervous but also kind of excited.
Title: Re: Hurricane Dorian Post by: pondwater on August 29, 2019, 04:58:25 pm Been so busy that I haven't been following it. How's it looking for Ocala? Guess I need to check in on my parents.
Title: Re: Hurricane Dorian Post by: Fau Teixeira on August 29, 2019, 05:42:03 pm if my house gets nailed bad then dave will end up in Oz .. i'm hoping it stays north of PSL and we should be ok with just some moderate wind and a bunch of rain
Title: Re: Hurricane Dorian Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on August 29, 2019, 05:58:48 pm Sunny and warm.
Title: Re: Hurricane Dorian Post by: masterfins on August 29, 2019, 06:44:29 pm Beautiful weather in Upstate NY, chance of rain, I'll be golfing this weekend.
Title: Re: Hurricane Dorian Post by: stinkfish on August 29, 2019, 11:42:51 pm Good luck and take care to all of you in the path of the storm.
Title: Re: Hurricane Dorian Post by: CF DolFan on August 30, 2019, 10:58:10 am Looks like it will land south of us and then head north. Typically not good to be on the NE side but hopefully it will be a 1 or less by the time it gets to Central Florida. Of course it's a few days way so things have plenty of time to change.
Title: Re: Hurricane Dorian Post by: Dave Gray on August 30, 2019, 12:00:50 pm This is a weird storm. Normally, you have a pretty decent idea of where it's headed. But this cone of uncertainty has been so big that it's gone from the keys to Georgia.
And the storm is moving slowly, so each hurricane center update doesn't bring much clarity. Assuming that the center of the model is the spot, I'm going to get pretty well hit. I'm prepared, for the most part. Hope I don't lose my house. Title: Re: Hurricane Dorian Post by: pondwater on August 30, 2019, 02:13:20 pm This is a weird storm.

It has shifted way north....may hit North Carolina or not at all. We’re set to get tropical storm winds late Monday into Tuesday.
Title: Re: Hurricane Dorian Post by: Phishfan on September 01, 2019, 09:44:13 am Isn't really worth talking about these things until they are ready to make landfall. Nobody knows what it's doing until it gets to you. I've got a few beers in the fridge as preparation.
Title: Re: Hurricane Dorian Post by: Fau Teixeira on September 01, 2019, 04:03:42 pm my shutters are shuttered .. i got water, propane, dried goods .. but more importantly i have a fantasy football draft on wednesday so hopefully we have power

Pro Tip - Fill your washing machine with beer and ice, when the ice melts it will drain out easily. |
