We prefer political disasters over natural disasters.

Feed-back from those in Florida is now a kinda strange resignation and people just trying to go thru the motions.
People just focusing on work with many working late tonite and tomorrow on their jobs (will blow your mind how people moving in warehouses), bare-back sweat kinda thing.
Shut-downs seem to be planned from Thursday evening and nobody making new commitments.
BTW, don't underestimate the toughness of Floridians including our own Trinis residing there.
Still hoping for the best!

Hurricane Irma is so strong, we're beginning to detect the system on seismometers in Guadeloupe.
As of 2PM, Hurricane Irma has sustained winds of 295 KM/H with gusts in excess of 350 KM/H. Currently, this system is moving westward at 22 KM/H.

^ the eye may pass directly over Anguilla and the British Virgin Islands

Looks like the storm is already making landfall there. Can't begin to imagine what they are going through.

Goddamn! That as high as a three storey building (45ft)

She's the second strongest hurricane on record in terms of sustained wind speeds..after Hurricane Allen in 1980..this is a storm of epic proportions folks, most Cape Verde hurricanes are catastrophic.

So true. I have family in the US VI and I can only pray for their welfare.

God help all those about to be affected.

the messed up thing for those living on those islands is that it is soo small there isnt anywhere you could evacuate and go
so its like you have no choice but to stay and pray for the best
