Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

Florida Weather

Moving NNE at 20mph with winds of 125mph.

They might be shutting off power in parts of florida as well before it hits.

I wish everyone living in and traveling to Florida the best. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
 
Hurricane Charley has changed course once again, it's now supposed to go right over Florida, and come off the eastern side of FL.All theme parks and flights in or ot of FL are cancelled, Tampa Bay has been completly evactuated and all power shut down as, well as the islands off the western coast.Those who are here for worlds, hotels are happy to help with anything they can, all roads are supposed to be evactuated by 2 o'clock. No one likes to use the A word with hurricanes, but this has the potential to be another Andrew. For those who see this pray for us down here in FL. Hopefully we will be able to have fun at worlds.

Well guys I will try to keep you updated My family arrived safely from Tampa, only to be told this afternoon that orange cty might do voluntary evacuations. The storm was to exit the state north of where I am currently living now it is going to leave somewhere between Cocoa Beach and Daytona Beach. Cocoa beach is only 5/10 miles north of us. I must admit its a little daunting. Hagrid 23 and I have both been in level 1 and 2 never a 3 or above (we usually leave for those) but this time not enough notice. This will be waliken's 3 caine. but first major one. We are doing all we are to do.
Dont worry about the other systems in the atlantic nature can do a whole range of things by then.

Even if a tropical storm hits during worlds most are not really that bad.
See ya at worlds.
EVERYONE KEEP SAFE.

my whole family is worried, I'm far away from home and can only wait on what is coming.
We bought water and candles and some food. I didn't know that I had to do that so I was in line for an hour this morning to get this.

All I know they told me the power is going to be shut off overhere in a few hours also the water.

Good luck!!!
 
rainbowgym, they are shutting the electric and water as a precaution. Once the storm passes the trouble crews will be out getting any problems corrected and then will have everything back on. The turned the power off in Tampa as a precaution. I am about hour east of you in central brevard cty 5 miles south of cocoa beach and north of Melbourne. pm if you want to talk or have any questions. The storm is on land and the eye is passing over or just passed Ft Myers.

Well right now, the wind is blowing at around 35-40mph and the rain is brutal. Don't think the power will go out , or that we'll have any damage though.

Btw, is Heidi still running the tournament tomorrow?

Acutally I'm west of Kissimmee so when I see the path of the hurricane I have my worries about being at this place.
Also the last shower is suddenly coming from another direction as the one before and as I remember my former lessons of meteorology that's not a good sign. "But I only had to study weatherforecast of my own country which is not having tropical storms so meaby I'm worried to much.

All I can do is wait and try to make some pictures, because my nice is making a studiesubject for her school about worlds and this hurricane will take a big part of her story.
 
I'm not even in Flordia and I'm worried that our flights will be canceled,I wish all of you luck down there,so don't die so we can play later next week.
 
venom, your flights next week should not be a problem. we are now getting winds gust about 50mph. I just had one of the trees in the back go over. I hope I dont lose many more.

Rainbow, the direction of the rain is not a real cause for concern, its the wind, is its a steady or just gusting.
That is where most of the damage comes from. Its still a bad storm but at least iis is down to a cat. 2.

I have the some candles lit so when we loose electic I can have light to find the other candles.
We should be getting the worse part of the storm between 11:00 and 2:00 am. Caines always seem to hit in the dark be it early am or late pm not sure why that is.

Kaz, I am getting outter bands Viera florida is where I am located. The wind is gusting about 50 mph.
(see my last posting)

When the main storm hits between 11:00 and 2:00 am. we will possibly have a steady wind speed of at least 60mph to 100mph with stronger gusting.

They (at this point of time) are expecting the storm to exit the state via Daytona Beach. They will have higher wind speeds they we will.

It cant be downgraded soon enough for me. That means major yard cleaning up in the neighborhood tomorrow. My neighbor has several palm fons that were just ripped off the trees.

It will be amazing to see what we end up finding in the yards dont forget, you also need to pull the patio furniture out of the pool. and rescue all the paddle boats that were sunk in the lake.
