That was funny but this storm will be heading your way next.
Maybe by then gold might be pushed back until a wider spread catalyst, like usual.

Imagine this happening in any of these blue states. The most selfish with infrastructure and security. There’s be looting everywhere and worse they wouldn’t be arrested. They bitch about everything and have no solutions. There’s clueless, just doom and depression spreading blame shifting bitching is all they got, “climate change that was debunked” when they couldn’t complain about what a good job De Santis and the Floridians are doing.
If it was a blue state a disaster would still be a disaster years later too after they looted including the middle class what they could.

I hope this doesn’t mess up the mid term elections with so many displaced.

Your neighbors Orlando getting pummeled right now with wind and rain.
Don’t sit or sleep on the side of your house where any trees could fall.
Rain could happen for 24 hrs.
I’m just trying to rest trying fight a bug off and winning but need more rest than giving myself.

They mentioned anyone who left area where neighbors who stayed who could be trapped now to call tell them where they are because power and cell phones could be out so soon as rescues can be deployed they can look for them and get them out.

I am on relatively high ground (if there truly is such a thing in FL) so should be okay , however I have several ‘Water Oak’ trees on my lot . They have notoriously poor root systems , are tall , and slender . In wind storms they do lose a lot of foliage , but many do topple during gusts . Depending on wind direction several could damage my home’s structure if uprooted .

I stayed with the miners , fought the Fed and now am punch drunk after 20 years of the beatings , LOL .

A good day to consider what Dane has been trying to expose now for years. Skip to 29 minutes if you’re short of time and listen to the next 10 minutes. Then re-think what is happening in Florida today.

You are protected my friend

Good luck and fingers crossed!

Good luck Alex! Stay safe! I sure hope that water doesn’t come into your house!

Good luck to you. I hope Alex might be right and the damage isn’t as bad as I fear, maybe I’ll get a nice surprise from above.

Hang in there!

Right in the bullseye.

Couple of hours.

Wireless out, phone service soon probably.  Miles from a tower.

Expect to lose power.  Out here.  Lines go thru miles of lightly populated woods to get here.

Hoping for the best.

Wow.  Weird name for today, here in Florida.

Anyway,  they made a deal for a bunch of shares to some group at around $5.10.  To raise money.  Sounds familiar in this sector.  I think they have until sometime in October to complete the share purchase.

Maddog, up 2% in one day is very rare, huh.

Buygold,

I’m very sorry to hear of your potential loss. Didn’t know you lived down that way.  Prayers for you, buddy.

Right now I’m in the bullseye in a couple of hours.  Expect tons of rain, but hopefully wind weakens a good bit.

I hope so, in a quake you can lose your home but can salvage not all but many things. In a flood you lose about everything you didn’t take with you.

Buygold Maybe find out what numbers to call or links for help. FEMA will reimburse for lodging or expenses your insurance doesn’t cover.
Another state but the numbers for FEMA are Gov on it.
There are housing voyagers too. Probably got to start early there’s gonna be a lot of homeless people from this.

I feel so ..I dont know what since so many in Fla are suffering ,but I was suffering holding Gold for many years while they were enjoying the Fla sunshine  ….So I guess everybody gets a share sooner or later .

The next 24 hours will certainly see flooding around me .
If the eyewall was south of BG’s home , he may return to a miraculous surprise . The windflow is counterclockwise so North of the eye , winds are out to sea and can produce negative storm surge pushing floodwaters out to sea locally . There is a term for the phenomenon which escapes me for the moment .

update : Blowout tide is the term .

Underwater. News said there’s a house floating away with the roof off.
Hope those young ones stuck in it can keep climbing and the roof holds. It was all preventable.

Maya thanks, yes and your post and Goldie and Alex helped me make the decision. I think we could have handled a Cat 3 and 8 ft. surge, but then it changed to a Cat 4 and 12-18′ surge and that was it for me. Would have been tough to stay with water in the house with two dogs and the wife.

Maddog – hope you’re right about that. I need about 5 more days of this, be nice if we started to build steam from here and see some $50 & $100 days. I’m not sure why the sterling was up on the QE news, I’d have thought the opposite would happen.

Ipso – we did seal everything up as best we could and I think we could withstand 3 ft. of standing water on the outside. Above that and it’s all over. Maybe God will surprise me.

The streets are a river already.

I’m glad you missed it. That town you pointed out no longer dry is beautiful.
All that sea life and coal. I didn’t understand what word meant looked it up to find it was a town. Unfamiliar names around there.
Looks like Alex could get some heavy rain later and water as it heads to the Atlantic side towards Daytona.

Well that’s cutting it close. Guess you had to check first. Please tell me you got your fur babies out too. That’s one thing that needs a little more work with emergency’s that take pets without crates in a emergency. I’m sure all the sounds are going to stress them out and as their instinct is to get away they’ll want to be with you instead of a kennel somewhere else anyways. Thinking you know better lol

My youngest daughter told me to go on tic toc. She said there’s live feeds. Some young Hispanic people waited too long, are now stuck in the flood zone doing live feed of the water coming in. There up on a balcony and people are asking them questions and water moving back and forth below them.
Yep they kept raising the hight of the surge but close enough since yesterday not to change where it’s coming in.
I don’t have tic tok app. to watch how these people chose to die.

I wonder who that was at your back door.
Maybe checking if anyone’s home before they break in.
Glad your out of the flood zone. Isn’t that something. Just buy a house and a Hurricane. Well I learned one thing if I ever decide to move there’s check for flood zones. Sheesh
Wil get windy and loud but your out of its path.

Glad to see you made it out of there! Must have been a scary deal!

Sorry about your house … that sucks.

Yeah a few months of market days like this would be OK with me.
