"Milton is forecast to move across the southwestern Gulf of Mexico through Sunday night then across the south-central Gulf on Monday and Tuesday before reaching Florida's west coast by the middle of the week, the hurricane center said.

The forecast comes a little more than a week after Hurricane Helene made landfall in Florida and across the Southeast, killing at least 229 people in six states and causing immense destruction."

This one is coming in a bit south and east of the last one... right over my head on it's way to Jacksonville looks like right now.

Gracie is going to have to bring her bloomers in offa the line.

Doubtful. Generally storms this time of the year are interacting with cold fronts as the fronts move west to east. currently we have a front moving across the center of the country and it wouldn't surprise me if it didn't put Helene Milton further to the east.

#1 You should be more concerned with RogerS bloomers, St. John's county has been declared a state of emergency and my county has not.

Rogers prefers thongs... everyone knows that!

At least that's what Clowny told me.

People say that you're the reason why your county has been placed in a permanent state of emergency.

At least that's what people say.

Odd track for a hurricane.

The feds should at least try to hide that they're driving these things. Before we know it, some low level contractor is gonna drive Hurricane Norm around so the track makes a giant penis in the gulf ...

Seriously, though, we need to stop rebuilding after this ----.

Anything that gets totaled within 500yrds of the beach gets cleared away and the owners compensated that one, single time.

Then it goes back to dunes, mangrove stands, swamp ect and we allow the replenishment of natural barriers.

Want to go to the beach? Drive. Walkways will be maintained to reach the water since they'll be far easier to replace once a year or two.

The Gulf is 86 degrees, warmer than the air.

"It will be the fifth hurricane to make landfall on the U.S. mainland in 2024, tying 2004, 2005, and 1893 for the most hurricanes to make mainland landfall on record."

Southern Miami-Dade yesterday our rain gauge hit near the 5-inch mark. Same expected today. And it's tropical rain, heavy and steady.
