An alert from NWS woke me up saying Michael was a solid cat 4. Mother Nature is really showing her teeth this year.

I know i'm repeating myself here but please be safe. Keep those you love close, and remember that your life is worth infinitely more than your property.

Just grabbed this off the webcam that @Panhandler posted. Probably bigger than it looks.

 

Looking nucking futs right now with a wicked paddle out

 

Raining and the early gusts have started. Got the bath tub filled up and designated doucing toilet established, also dropped the AC to chill the house as much as possible. We still have a couple hours before it really starts to pop off. Thoughts are with everyone in the area.

 

@Panhandler @StuckontheGulf

Where are you guys located?

 

LIVE: Hurricane Michael hitting Panama City Beach, Florida


Hurricane Michael barrels toward Florida as 'monstrous' Cat 4 | ABC News

 

Across the bay and east of Destin.

 

Good luck to ya'll. Don't take any chances you don't have to take. Keep us posted.

 

Looks like a beautiful area. I would love to check out the Air Force museum. From the sat pics I can see a SR-71. Pretty cool.

 

I'm on the beaches of Tampa Bay, Treasure Island. Got good surf yesterday but we are in no danger. See it at www.gulfster.com. Check the venice video at the bottom of the page and the AMI links at the top. Just 2-4 ft surge. My dock is underwater and its about to come over the seawall, no biggie. Best of luck to the Panhandle, That thing is wound up to take a big swing at you. Stay safe!

 

Just watched the news at lunch, holy wow, be safe swellies

 

Got this link from my uncle. Cam still up:

That's the Panama City Beach concrete city pier. It goes a quarter mile into the Gulf. Waves are breaking as far out as I can see and are breaking over the pier.

 

Weeeww, can see the change in wind and rain direction.

 

Did the eye pass over yet?

 

We are west of the eye by about 35 miles or so. Not entirely sure where it made landfall but looked like it was just east of PCB. I feel for those over there. We got really lucky here so far. Looks like the storm is moving quickly north

 

Those conditions look fun!!

 

Wouldn't mind being stuck near that.
