The current paths for my area (treasure coast) do not look good at all.  Either it's right up 95 or goes over to Naples and puts us on the right side of the storm.    

Hope everyone is safe and gets all their prep in time.    Water is scarce and a lot of people are ordering from amazon.

I thought I heard somewhere that the Governor has ordered mandatory evacuation.  Having been stationed in Norfolk area and living there for 8yrs I've ridden out a couple of hurricanes, but no way would I be trying to ride this one out.  Irma is cat 5 hurricane with sustained winds approaching 200mph!   Time to go and now!

Irma already bent me over, I have a vacation to St Martin over my birthday in 3 weeks.  From what I've seen, the island isn't going to be recovering any time soon...

Maybe you guys can take advantage of this?  At any rate stay safe guys!
