Most of you know I live in southwest Florida. Right on the gulf. Naples, where I live, is not in the direct path of the storm. But, the coastline here is supposed to get significant storm surge. I am 15+ miles from the coast so should be just fine. I work for the P.O. and we are closed today and tomorrow. I don't think we could get any deliveries anyway. Highways are jammed with people trying to bug out. As long as I have cell service I will keep all of you posted on the situation. Hopefully can get some pics.

Well wishes to you and everybody else from a fellow P.O. employee. This looks to be a real monster. Be safe.

Batten down the hatches TJ! It looks like some serious stuff coming your way. Stay dry, keep your head down, and hopefully you and your loved ones get through this unscathed.

It's now 6am Thursday. I think the worst is over. Rain and wind nothing extraordinary for this area. When I woke up I still have power internet. Went outside some branches and palm fronds down but nothing looks damaged. Still dark so tough to see everything. All in all I think I'm good
