Man, now I wished I had not burned that tire in the back yard and caused all this funky weather.

Sorry man, Stay safe!

Currently appears that it will come a shore somewhere in the FL panhandle and will be a fast mover.

Do know that the coastal areas in LA and panhandle have had a very wet summer and do not need a lot of additional rain.

I’m watching this one with interest, projected to come to shore near where we spend a few weeks each year. Dan, be safe!

We have a similar problem out west. Hurricane Rosa off Baja dumped 3" as a tropical depression on the desert in one day last week and a new storm named Sergio is expected to come our way late this week. Only difference is we NEED it to refill our lakes so feel free to send any excess you have this way.

^ Would be willing to share if there was a way.

Current predictions indicate Micheal will come a shore east of Panama City unless it zigs when it should have zagged.

Still keeping a eye on it just in case it does not zag as predicted.

If predictions hold Stinger will be closer to ground zero but will be on the west side of the eye which is desirable.

Oldest cub and crew are now at the house. Decided Destin was to close to ground zero.

Only two storm related deaths reported so far. Pray that number does not increase.

One outlet reporting that currently 650K house holds across the southeast without power.

There has been so little reporting out of Mexico Beach and Port St Joe, that I can’t help but feel that number will go up. I’ve heard 300 didn’t evacuate MB and the few pics I’ve seen don’t look promising. Not a lot of high ground in that area.

I’ve gotten some pics from friends down there. It’s numbing. I keep thinking back a couple of months ago and realizing it was the last time I will ever see x or eat at y. Still haven’t seen much to the east of the El Governor, but hearing that much is either gone or beyond repair.

I’ll be honest, I shed some tears looking at the photos and film over the last 2 days.

Youngest cub went into Waveland, Ms with a contingency hospital operation a couple of days after Katrina hit. If I recall Waveland was ground zero and there was like a 25' plus storm surge.

Cub stated it had to resemble the after math of a nuke detonation.
