Florida hurricane

[mandrix]

It all sucks. I've been through three hurricanes in 13 months, the last one did some damage to my home. The chance of getting repairs before the next one are nil.
Gloom, despair, and agony.
Selfish me says anywhere but here. On the other hand, my Daughter lives in Bradenton, so I don't want it for her either.

The thing is, although closer range forecasts are fairly accurate, the long range (speaking several days even) sometimes are not. We've barely escaped a few bad ones here in the past, but the odds have stacked against us in the last year.
With insurance being what it is in Florida now...(thank you dear Governor for your awesome help) I truly hope none of us get affected badly.
Tighten down and hang on, or DD out if you need to. I traveled for Idalia and Helene, do it again if I feel I need to keep us safe.

Clinty, time to RELOCATE to

I thought he was already there. What?! Something silly in a member profile?

Like me saying I live in the Crown of the Statue of Liberty, SW!

You have had it really bad and I hope you get a chance to recover. I've been in a lot of these storms and I have evacuated in the past when the building I lived in wasn't safe. It's a judgement call based on past experience and luck...everywhere you live there are some threats...people in California have had their share of dangers over the years...earthquakes...land slides and most recently fires...my niece lives in Kansas and tornadoes are a constant threat...then there is freezing rain in the midwest and life threatening extreme weather...

Don't forget the medical waste that washes up on the beaches...those syringes really turn off the tourists...and then there is the raw sewage

Best of luck to you and to all Floridians who are in the path of yet another hurricane Clint.

I have a close friend who lives in Tampa who just informed me he packed up and left ….For his second home in North Carolina…which had left last Tuesday because of no electricity..they will be on generators now for a while..a long recovery road ahead for many that are affected.

Stay safe.

But if you recall Clinty, a scant few years ago GOS' garage flooded and his beloved 20+ pound feline Lamar was in therapy for a year

I was just on a European tour with a number Americans in Sptember and one of the lady's houses in Florida still hadn't been repaired from the hurricane a year or so ago. Best wishes to all of you in the SE of the US, I hope that you and your homes remain safe.

Cheers
