Waiting on Irma....

Praying for all y'all riding it out. I was 12 when Andrew came through and still remember that devastation. This really puts that in perspective. Hope it ends up way better for everyone.

Don't forget the clean out plugs! Lol!!

In all seriousness, good luck and be safe.
 
@Drift Away - you sir have just earned points in my book.

Hope you have a good generator ready to go! Don't worry about fuel..... you've got 50 gallons sitting in the driveway waiting on you!

Stay safe!
 
at least 2 boats in cape coral...

@Drift Away are you planing on putting a keel guard or you will drift with the trailer just in case you hit shallow water ?
 
Beautiful and scary at the same time.
 
Sorry @ClemsonTiger
I posted that just as your picture came in. I was referring to the waves.
 
me and my crew are enroute down to you guys now. PLease do us a favor and if you plan on running a generator, shut your main breaker off on your house if you didnt have it installed with a transfer switch. by not doing this, you are back feeding the line and potentially killing any one working to restore your power
 
My brother is prepping for this storm....he's in an evac zone in Tampa.....his store is close to one, and his restaurant in Brandon is in a better spot (right near Brandon Reg Hosp)....but they have a MASSIVE oak tree over the restaurant....

Hope this thing moves onland quickly.....vs running up the coast offshore pushing tons of water into tampa bay....which is Tampa's worst case scenario for a hurricane!!!!
 
Ok Irma...kickoff is at 7:00pm....don't F#ck with the power lines till the game is over!!!

Plenty of gas, water and food also have a generator. Everyone stay safe. Looks like we're in for a good one, right up the asscrack of cape coral.
