    I've got some friends in Cape Coral. I'll say, the guy had his house built to Commercial spec, to the point that he has no lawn but an actual parking lot, handicap spot and all. Very solid, in other words. But not waterproof. So I'm not worried about their safety exactly, but I greatly doubt their ability to stay dry.

    Not that it's an analog for real life, but Flight Simulator continues to amaze me with the live weather, specifically flying into current hurricanes:

    I’ve been vacationing there with my family since I was like 8 years old. Really sad if they get wiped out.

    Looks like Ian is supposed to dump rain on us for four damn days starting Friday. I think I'll make massive pot of soup or chicken and dumplings. Sit around in our jammies and stuff our faces for four days while binge some shows.

    My wife’s best friend’s grandparents drove from Miami to get away from the storm. Where did they escape to? Fort Myers. Good job paying attention, Gramps.

    So far I don't think the storm surge was as bad as they thought it was going to be.

    My brother in law’s employee and her family is/was vacationing in Cape Coral. She decided to stay because she thought the hurricane was supposed hit tampa bay. Apparently evacuation orders are only for some.

    Our place was sold last year and I’m pretty sure my two 2nd? cousins are at their summer places at the moment. Venice Englewood area. Looks like it’s getting pummeled. Where I caught that shark I posted. We’ve had a few close calls with the place but my grandparents only had to evacuate once.

    I think he should get hit more. Way more.

    I was just watching some CBC coverage, and the meteorologist was there in a full-on warzone outfit... vest, helmet, etc, acting like he was in a war zone about to get nailed at any time... anxiously looking off at the sky like it's about to just open up and unleash Hell.

    He signs off, like he's bracing for impact, and then behind him some late 30's heavy set Mexican woman in a t-shirt and flip flops just walks by.

    It reminded me of that bitch in the canoe while someone walked behind her and it wasn't even knee high water.

    I said, "you fucking wanker", and laughed.
