Hurricane Fay Heads for Florida

expected to pass up the state on Tuesday-Wednesday as a cat 1 or 2 hurricane:eek:

Please keep all Florida members in your prayers

http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/...,5668817.story

Prayers for our Florida members being said.

Chemar and Joelle are the only two I know of (I think). If I missed someone that I should have known about I'm sorry!

Ya'll please stay safe.....:smileypray:

hopefully it will die down or go out to sea, I hope you all are safe and careful, Kelly you too, you are not that far away. and georgia looks to be in its project landfall path.

jmiller is in Spring Hill, FL. Not sure where that is but from the looks of the weather channel map the entire state of FL will get some impact from this storm.

He's on vacation up north right now....hopefully he'll miss the storm or get back in time to batten down the hatches.

What am I thinkin'.........??? He's got plenty of duct tape! He'll be fine!! :D

BMW :hug: is NE of me and I am NW of Orlando.

currently the models have it making landfall somewhere along the west coast of Florida late monday-early tuesday and it depends on a bunch of things as to the track it will take then

This is always so hard when praying about these storms...as praying it will veer west away from us means it will head for panhandle or gulf coast.....:(

after the damage we had here in 2004 I really am very scared of these storms.:icon_eek:

really a test of one's ability to trust the Lord, nomatter what:o

Chemar dont be scared Fay ... it is going to be a small hurricane if that . be prepared dont be scared :hug:, I just brought a elderly neighbor to store for supplies. Right now it seems like many are pretty laid back on this one .well at least around my area. but we will get the bad side of it as it "shakes floridas hand " . and I think id rather it come here then the gulf where it could affect the oil rigs and stuff like that.and my neighbors...and N.T. members out that way. I am right on the east coast florida...

wonder how Southie is she is a florida memeber on west side I believe and a few others I know of I p.m. already to keep in touch ;)
lets all Tie down our floats help our neighbors or those who need help and lets all make it threw this storm safe and sound. :grouphug:
PEACE
BMW

Syaing prayers for you and everyone down in Florida :hug:

I hope that the storm is downgraded and turns out to be nothing damaging.

hope you all are staying safe and "dry"

:grouphug:

lol Moi no such word as "dry" on the Florida peninsula today :D

however good news is Fay came ashore at Cape Romano, just south of Marco Island, as a tropical storm just below cat 1 hurricane strength and now has max sustained winds of 60mph with higher gusts. So at least she didnt strengthen before making landfall

8 a.m. Tropical Storm Advisory

Fay is moving across South Florida.

A Tropical Storm Warning remains in effect along the west coast of Florida, from the middle of Longboat Key southward, and along the east coast of Florida, from Flagler Beach southward, including Lake Okeechobee, and for the Florida Keys, from Ocean Reef to the west end of the Seven Mile Bridge, including Florida Bay.

we are squally here at present with the big bands beginning to move in

It seems the main concerns are going to be flooding rains for our area and the tornado watch remains in effect till 4am Weds

thanks so much for the prayers lifted for us all and keep 'em coming please, especially that Fay wont spawn tornadoes and that there wont be power loss

I talked to Joelle last night and they are hanging in there. They're in Coral springs. I could hear the rain pouring as we were talking (she was out on her porch). It sounded heavy!! She said she thought they'd be fine but I told her to call me if anything changed.

Please, ya'll all stay safe. Praying for everyone in the path of Fay. :hug:

cheri, so no tonka trucks in your yard?:wink:

I woke up thinking about my ((BMW sis)) and didn't even realize we have several members in Florida. You guys all take care.

Like BMW, I love storms...but hate the tornadoes. :eek:

yes tornados spotted even one water spout off the coast here near me. we are like 45 mins away from getting hit with some outter bands and will get our share all threw the night. so I am getting off the comp and hunkering down ..good night for a card game of rummy .
Doody sister BMW is a just wet and breezy :p. :hug:
Chemar and everyone else feeling this...stay safe and on alert for those twisters. and everyone else ....send positive thoughts that there isnt anymore tornados . T.Y. much much :hug:
PEACE
BMW

:eek: they are now saying that the Brevard/Cape Canaveral coast can expect high winds and heavy rain thru Thursday morning...major beach erosion:( Storm is stalling but not weakening and so flooding is happening too

Fay expected slowly make its way out into the atlantic tomorrow, strengthen to cat 1 hurricane and turn back toward Florida/Georgia

latest update on the homes damaged by the Barefoot Bay tornado is at 51 and other storm related damage reports beginning to come in

my area is getting strong wind and horizontal rain now. swirling low clouds everywhere.
It is always scariest when these things continue in the dark...hearing them but not able to see is so eerie.:o

continued prayers are valued ...thanks:grouphug:

well it looks like Florida is going to have a double whammy from Fay as they are now predicting she will churn around the east coast a bit and then turn back in over our northern counties:(

:hug: BMW seems she will sit over your area

http://cfnews13.com/Weather/Hurrican...ast_coast.html

there is serious flooding happening in Brevard County (that is where Cocoa Beach/Cape Canaveral/Kennedy Space Center is)

Fay has stalled over them and forecasters are saying 30+ inches:eek: of rain with some areas already 13 inches deep :(

as it now looks like Fay will sit there for a while and then turn slightly and come back in again the situation has now become very very serious

http://cfnews13.com/Weather/Hurrican...ast_coast.html

Yupper Looks like Fay may turn around and come back near my neck of the beach then cross florida. it is just hanging right off shore moving so slow I cant even tell its moving on radar only rotating. it has me spent and tired from pain flaring and pressure. but still safe as I hope and pray all our Florida members are. I need a nap before I collapse on my key pad here.
:grouphug:
PEACE'
BMW

(((((((((((((BMW)))))))))))))

I am praying for you and all to my east.

hope you get good rest and maybe Fay will change track and not be over you:hug:

we are definitely having the worst of Fay today.....dealing with a few leaks here, driving rain and howling winds tho compared with those to my east it is nuthin:(

now being called "catastrophic" flooding there

please continue to pray as Fay has now turned and coming back in at us:eek:

Forecasters are saying at least another day of this :eek::eek:

here is latest update (if you click the radar pic top right and look between Sanford & Orlando you will see what we are having here at my place)
http://www.cfnews13.com/Weather/Hurr...g_for_fay.html

Fay Fay Go Away already:rolleyes:

Praying hard for you all. Fay, you listen up!! :grouphug:

Continuing to pray for you all.:hug:

I spoke with family near Daytona Beach area this morning. They have had downpour rains for 3 days now. Not too much flooding in their area, just a big time rain. Their comment was "y'all up north need to just take this thing called Fay the H*** away" !!! Continued prayers for all in FLA.
