jerryskids 5,204 Posted August 30, 2019 My inlaws are in Vero Beach, on the west side of the causeway or whatever they call it. Basically not on the thin strip on the ocean. Their house is fairly new and has all of the desired storm protections, and they have a generator, so they plan to stay put. Not sure that is the smartest plan, but nobody asked me...

GobbleDog 816 Posted August 31, 2019 Orlando, FL reporting in. Everyone's buying gas, water and propane. The impact has been postponed a few times, changing everyone's plans. Was landfall Sun morning, then Mon morning, now it's Tues afternoon. It slowed down, which is why it's gotten so damn big sitting on that warm ocean. Lived Orlando all my life and the worst I ever saw was Hurricane Charlie (2004) with max winds of 106 mph. Destroyed trees, roofs and pool enclosures, shut off power for several days. We ain't used to getting hit like that in Central, FL. We usually get lots of rain and laugh at our fellow Floridians living along the coasts. Hurricane Dorian's max winds are currently 140 mph, making it Category 4. Three days away and moving slowly over warm water..could get bigger. When it does hit it's going to unleash God's fury on West Palm Beach. Then it's projected to head north through Central FL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was living in st Pete for Charlie. We evacuated to Orlando. Then the focker moved and went right over us. I decided to step outside the hotel and look. Never seen a hurricane before. Fock that was crazy. Then the ride home blew. The interstate was a parking lot, so we tried back roads. There were tornadoes everywhere. It was insane. The next one that came, I just went back to Tennessee. Fock those things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
