That's almost like a 30-mile-wide F4 tornado.

I still have to see it drop to a Cat 4 Hurricane, the water temperature around Cuba and Florida is extremely hot, feeding the Hurricane, my bet is it will stay a Cat 5 Hurricane or maybe just under.

This Irma is a major disaster in progress. I hope there is minimal loss of property, and no loss of life.

For those of you in harms way, I'll be thinking of you, hoping you are safe.

Find a good place to hunker down, and forget about your radios and other possessions. They are replaceable, you aren't. Take care of your families, friends, and neighbors.

Hang on and may God be with you.

Stores here, in Upstate SC, are running out of things today. Really?

I remember the damage done by Hurricane Sandy when it hit NY. and that was only a Cat 1 when it hit. A CAT 5 makes hurricane Sandy look like a kiddie toy,

I can't wait to move way up into the far north. Yeah the winters are extremely bitter cold and punctuated by heavy snows. But I much prefer it to dealing with hurricanes, tornadoes, head, humidity, etc.
