I was awakened by my 88 year old neighbor lady at 5 am , she watched something on the news where DeSantis said to evacuate , so she was leaving . Mind you we live on the east coast south florida and not in the projected path , it's projected to pass north of us .
Anyway , she got mad at us for not leaving with her and stormed off , no pun intended , 88 , she has dementia and no cell phone and who knows where she is .
The news sucks .
We've got friends coming from the other side , dogs , cats , maybe even a bird . I've got the shutters up although we shouldn't need them , figured that frees me up if it gets bad last minute to help others .
It's the Tampa Bay area and north that going to get hit hardest , again , if it goes the way it projected .
I used Windy.com to track/project the storm , it's the most reliable , check it out .
