Doesn't look bad to me. Maybe a tropical storm, at worst.
Ventusky isn't showing any real threats to Florida in any of the forecast tracks for the predictable future.

Looks like it may be a heavy rain event here on Tuesday, but Ventusky is showing it remaining a tropical storm and the main bulk of it moving east of us. Hopefully anyway. Connie just came out of the hospital this evening, and she doesn't need this sort of excitement right now.

I hope she's ok. Looks like it will move through quickly so hopefully that will minimize the danger.

The real kick in the teeth is that we both tested positive for COVID recently. Obviously we picked that up after being in the hospital week before last. We both feel like crap right now.
Going to be just a wonderful time if the power gets knocked out. If trees are down across the driveway, no way I am going to feel up to dealing with that.
Wish I had felt up to fixing the Onan generator. With everything going on, just don't have enough wind in my sails lately....

They say the Apalachicola Bay has never had a Cat 3 storm since the history of hurricanes has been recorded. They are warning of an 11 foot tidal surge being possible there and the wind warnings for Leon County is between 74 and 110 mph. This is about as bad as it gets.
