katjoeus Posted October 6, 2016 #226 Share Posted October 6, 2016 I hope they work out something with folks that miss their cruise...hope the port aren't too damaged...that could affect lots of cruises to come...we live 4 blocks from the beach and are staying home...pray for the best....everyone be safe... If the ports are damaged, this will affect A LOT more people than just the holiday makers!! Some of these islands live off the cruises stopping there....

Bette And Bill Posted October 7, 2016 #229 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Good Evening - we are in Port St. Lucie, FL. (just north of West Palm Beach) The winds here are starting to pick up and the rain is becoming more constant. So far we still have power. With the slight shift of the eye to the east earlier today, we are being spared a little bit and the strongest winds will stay off shore in our area. hope it will help those to the north of us, especially in the Port Canaveral area along with the Jacksonville area.

Wishing you the best. Glad you appear to being spared the worst of the storm. We are hoping the high winds don't filter over to us on the West Coast of FL.

Met you at Sky Bar Freedom Aug 28 informal CC meet That was a pretty good cruise. Even if we were getting away from another tropical storm. What a difference a month makes.

put me on a ship Posted October 7, 2016 #236 Share Posted October 7, 2016 We're in Melbourne, and conditions are going downhill for sure. I'd say we have tropical storm force winds right now. The eye of the storm won't be here for awhile yet. That jog to the east was good news for us, for sure. Now it looks like the storm will stay off shore of us, and perhaps make landfall to the north of us. We still have power, for now. I'm going to try to sleep, at least for a bit, and fully expect not to have power when I wake up. Good night all. Over and out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarea Posted October 7, 2016 #238 Share Posted October 7, 2016 If it's yellow let it mellow If it's brown, flush it down Cross your fingers John, it looks like the path took a slight turn to the north and the eyewall might be offshore as it goes by you. Still a surge risk though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
