The path has changed to the North Carolina/South Carolina border. It is still rated as a Catagory 4.

Hopefully it will weaken or die out.Gulfcoastguy said:The path has changed to the North Carolina/South Carolina border. It is still rated as a Catagory 4.Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out. -

Is your roof done @Gulfcoastguy?

I am in a different area from this hurricane, but the answer is no. I was promised yesterday that they will be here to put up the metal on Monday. I will post it under New Roof : Part Troi. Now back on topic. It looks more like North Carolina now with a possible drop to Catagory 3.Eoin said:Is your roof done @Gulfcoastguy? -
Just saw the latest NOAA update. Looks like there’s a potential bullseye on our place. Guess I’ll be heading that way tomorrow to button things up...Charlotte, NC

We are very far inland so wind most likely won't be a big problem for us but local forecasters are talking about a lot of rain, local flash flooding and if we get any wind trees could be a problem once the ground is soaked. A more northern track would be better for us here in the mountains. Hopefully folks on the coast will get ready and run if told to.

Here in Knotts Island NC we are prepping for the worst, hoping for the best. Such as, it weakens and moves thru quickly!
Getting gas, water etc and making sure generators and chain saws will start.
If ordered to evacuate, good luck, one road in and out (that may be flooded/closed) just to get to the south end of VA Beach. Then another hour or more to get to the 'parking lot' interstate.

We stayed in a beach front home in the gulf a few years back when a CAT1 rolled through.......mistake that I'll never make again. My curiosity was more than satisfied!!GrillSgt said:Better to be too cautious than not cautious enough.

I just tested the chainsaw. Going to pick up my generator from other house on the coast tomorrow. Inland where we are (Richmond, or "Mecca" as Carolinians call it) we are predicting historic flooding and tropical storm winds on top of already saturated ground = widespread power outages from downed trees.Richmond and Mathews County, VA.

They just closed schools for the rest of the week in SC to allow them to be converted to shelters. They’re not fooling around with this one.Slumming it in Aiken, SC.

Hey folks, if you need refuge, our home will be open to anyone needing a place to ride this one out.
We had experience with Katrina, had folks come stay, you are welcome here.

Looking like Florence may become a Category 5-er in the next day or so.

These kind of images always make me realize how tiny we are. Cause that Hurricane is what a few hundred, maybe 1,000 miles across? Yet the earth makes it look tiny. It's all perspective I guess.Rockwall, Tx LBGE, Minimax, 22" Blackstone, Pizza Party Bollore. Cast Iron Hoarder.
