Yes, large rain band from Fort Laderdale and north. Interestingly, another huge band from the middle keys streaming toward key west. Still clear and sunny here in the Upper Keys. We are often blessed, but not forever, I guess.

ALERT ALERT >> All SFL metro areas to get slammed from now for the next several hours.

I'm with ya Typhoon_Willie out in Royal Palm. I walked around the neighborhood and saw every house boarded up tight. I know we'll lose power since we usually do in a strong storm. I'm going to have to depend on the radio...ack! We've got 8 people here. No sleep tonight I'm sure of that. It's going to be a long weekend. I hope the storm doesn't strenghten for all our sakes. Good luck all.

I hope you won't be out when the 100 mph+ winds come in.
