I'm 15 minutes from the coast on a hill. Not all of Florida is flat (believe it or not). I could get Noah's 40 days of rain and not flood.
Now that being said, 15 minutes away at the coast they had 4 feet of standing water due to storm surge from the last hurricane that missed us but came close.

Just wondering. Hope you guys end up being safe through the next hurricane.

Thanks. The biggest pain this storm will cause is the hours we spent yesterday bringing in all the pool and lawn furniture.

You should've known better. The fact they kept hyping this one up when it was still scattered showers as it drifted over Puerto Rico is the first hint. If it was already organized by then, sure.
But this is a tropical storm. It's not going to pick up some massive amount of power because of the "omgz Gulf is so much warmer than normal."
If it were going to do that, it'd have to track all the way to Texas, or maybe do one of those swirly things where it just drifts around in a circle.
Like I said, it seems they really want this one to be a massive disaster. I have no clue why. Typically hurricanes don't really form in July or early August because you have Saharan dust still lingering that kills that shit.
We'll get big storms this year. They'll turn up mid-late August and into September, just like always.

The problem is lawn and pool furniture is light enough to get blown around by a TS. My Blackstone is so heavy I didn't bother moving it.q

SC did. If you look at all the models all at once it looks like a 3 year old was told to make sure and color the entire map. Surprised it doesn't go all the way to Australia.

We got about 10-15 minutes of rain from this thing, and it looks like that'll be it. Not even a light breeze.If Debbie keeps this up, it might miss FL entirely and hit AL
I think Alabama is probably safe.

We are actually getting more wind and rain now than we did as it passed by us. Fucking circular storms.
