Stacy 0 #1 August 11, 2004 Looks like FLorida is getting slammed this weekend! Bonnie could nail the northwest side of FL. Charlie is just going to take the whole state. Charlie could be a hurricane by the end of the day. Sounds like a blockbuster weekend! __ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stacy 0 #4 August 11, 2004 tropical storms, missy. bonnie is at about 50 mph winds and probably won't become a hurricane. supposed to hit tallahassee-ish tomorrow, they already have a watch. CHarlie is the trouble maker, hitting Jamaica today and predicted to go straight up florida. it's winds are at 65 mph now and strenghthening. it's going ot be a wet weekend! __ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilotdave 0 #5 August 11, 2004 You have got to be kidding. I'll be in Orlando/Deland this weekend. Tomorrow through Sunday actually. I appreciate florida's effort to cool off for me, but this is just ridiculous. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeatherB 0 #6 August 11, 2004 Yeah, this doesn't look so good. As if we need more rain. Hurricane/housewarming party at Stacy's!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stacy 0 #7 August 11, 2004 how about hurricane-packing party at stacy's? this is my last weekend in west palm. I've got a car full to go to Salvation army, lots of trash, and lots of glass stuff to get wrapped up and boxed. Then of course, a week of eating "the things left in the freezer." I've pretty much got chicken, black beans, and broccoli for a week. __ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marcandalysse 0 #9 August 11, 2004 We're in the wind tunnel friday nite....oh maybe it will be the 'rain tunnel'! That will be an expensive shower! Let's hope for the best.

HeatherB 0 #10 August 11, 2004 Ahh - I thought you were moving this weekend. Good thing you aren't....soggy cardboard boxes don't hold up so well! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilotdave 0 #11 August 11, 2004 Cool, I'm in the tunnel friday night too. With a group 6-7pm and again either 9-9:30 or 10-10:30. Then I'm in again sat and sunday mornings. I gotta go figure out how to install windshield wipers on my Z1... Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skymama 37 #12 August 11, 2004 Yep, yep. I was already out buying water this morning so I could beat the rush. You never know how much you want or need water until you don't have any!

AggieDave 6 #14 August 11, 2004 QuoteLike extra batteries, right? For the radios you pervs! Well, that's why you have the gas powered version with the electric start. Its much easier to start then the old kick start version. Gas powered generators...geez.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."
