That would be close to T7.0? Although there is probably a high bias in GOES-16.

Been tru a few storms including Andrew but this one is quite different and a bit more scary to me. If it takes a track up the spine it will make getting supplies in the southern end of the state where i am really difficult which is my biggest concern. With Andrew we could just drive north a couple of hours and restock fuel, food and essentials.

Button the place up. Board up, shutters -whatever - if you have them. Unplug appliances, like TV, etc. I'd only leave the fridge running (cause you're hoping it'll STAY on!). Take whatever food you can with you so as not to lose much to loss of power.
Pick up your yard, don't leave anything around that'll blow away into your neighbors' yards. They will not be amused!
CLEAN UP, especially do all your laundry. You don't know how long you'll be gone, and you DON"T want to come home to a pile of dirty laundry when you'll probably be bringing dirty laundry home with you.

You make a good point.
So, the moral of the story is: plan for what you need to be self-sustaining for quite awhile. Is that what you're thinking?

Hopefully Alligator Alley toward the west coast Naples/Ft. Myers wouldn't be as bad, but if the GFS happens Central Florida and Jacksonville would be strapped for supplies also.

I think he needs to stay up there until next Thursday.
