Last modified: 2 Sep 2019, 17:10:21 UTC I'm not going to second-guess what is probably a very difficult decision. I'll just hope you and your dog stay safe and the power stays on. I admire your pluckiness - dealing with your health issues the way you have to me, is courageous and admirable. ID: 2010477 ·

Now it heads to Florida. Although its strength has diminished, it is now wider and dangerous. Best wishes to Bob DeWoody. Tullio ID: 2010614 ·

Even though the coastline took a pounding further inland there isn't much damage. My power is still on and I haven't seen any downed trees or heavy structural damage. We, here in central Florida were lucky. I hope residents of states further north don't get a strong pounding either. My decision to stay at home worked out. For future reference I plan to investigate what sleeping arrangements are provided in public shelters. It would be almost impossible for me to get into and out of a cot sitting low to the ground on my own. So, fo now, I am safe as well as my dog.

A good bit of luck- Abaco and Grand Bahama were shocked by how slowly it moved. When it comes to storms, the faster they move, the better. Grant Darwin NT ID: 2011039 ·

It's in the southeast Bahamas right now and has a 70% chance of developing into a tropical storm. Looks like the Bahamas is going to get whacked again.
