OMG! The pictures are incredibile. I'm praying for you Floridians.
I do have a question. Are people evacuating?

If so, what is it like there since there is only one direction to head out?

It's a headache in my state, and we have 3 ways to go.

Please be safe people.

I am no meteorologist, but I did study it at the University of Miami for 3 years before changing majors, so take everything with a ton of salt and believe just about nothing that I say. Check with the NHC and the pros for official predictions.

Those evacuating to the shelter should bring prescription medications, copies of important documents, blankets, baby items and other vital supplies.


The shelter may become crowded, therefore, the Red Cross asks that you do not bring any unnecessary items. This shelter will remain open as needed.


Official updates can be found on the Leon County Emergency Information Portal
(EIP) at http://www.LeonCountyFL.gov/ei/ .


Leon County Emergency Management is advising that residents to monitor the latest forecasts and be prepared to take necessary precautions to protect life
and property. Drivers should use caution and adhere to any official signage.


The National Weather Service also warns that residents should not drive cars through flooded areas and that if they see flood waters to turn around and find another route.


Residents are also encouraged not to attempt to walk through floodwaters. Any and all flood water should be considered to be contaminated. Do not allow children to play in, wade through or swim in flood water.


Residents requiring more information or assistance should call Leon County Emergency Management at (850) 488-5921.

Why are the evacuations voluntary and not mandatory?
Why weren't there mandatory evacuations sooner, like yesterday?

We are not suffering anything like the flooded out areas in North FL or the rivers, but it hasn't been smooth sailing, either. Stay safe, peeps!

Down the street from me in Holmes Beach, FL on Anna Maria Island. This happened in the wee hours of Monday a.m.
Image

Friend's dock just before high tide yesterday. We really haven't seen canal flooding like this since Elena. Many are saying it's more like an even back in the 60's.
Image

Typical road at the North end of the island yesterday.. even at low tide with only a few drops of rain.
Image

The beach erosion has been like nothing I've seen. This was yesterday and is one of a few turtle nests remaining.

Black Creek in Middleburg Fl is forecast to hit 25 feet, just short of the all time record of 25.3 feet recorded in 1919.
Flood stage is 16 feet.

I live near a conservation area flood plain that drains into a branch of Black Creek. It has been flooded to say the least. Usually bone dry, has 3-4 feet of water, but Im in no flood danger at least. It would take a thousand year flood to get my house lol.... (lets hope this isn't a 1000 year flood)
