Hurrciane Matthew

Looks like it's going to hit the upper coast of FL. Cat 4.

Still tightening up what can be, and waiting.

Is Matthew a SUPER SLOW mover, or is it in normal speed range ?

Hang in there and be safe, All of you in the path.

Our Florida spearo's & family batten down the hatches and stay safe.

Thanks guys. Looks like it missed us in Fort Lauderdale. We never lost power. Some rain, some wind, nothing major, almost disappointing

En Haiti no hubo esa suerte....:(

Disappointing :@. Be glad Dan....be very glad that thing didn't hit. I've been through at least 10 and had the power go off for over a month on three of them. (Philippines, Hawaii and Belize) They suck.

I went through one on a 55 foot sailboat with a crew of 3 - it is good to have a miss &#128561;&#128077;

I was staying in a house about a quarter mile from this harbor. Just across the bridge that broke on Mactan Island. We had no idea it was coming back in those days and had planned to ship baby shrimp that night but the plane never showed up. Then the wind came.

Our hatchery was well built and became a refugee center. We had private planes that delivered our shrimp, flying in rice, dried fish, water...I hate typhoons.

Hank, I experienced two category 5 hurricanes; Michelle in 2001 and Wilma in 2005 (we were without power for 2 weeks). There's certainly a feeling of relief here, but also undeniably after all the preparation it feels strangely anti-climactic. Obviously others feel something similar hence the video. I know you speak some Spanish so give it a shot, it had me LOL

Yesterday the sea was flat calm all day and night. But I've never seen the water this dirty at Fort Lauderdale beach. It's so ugly I would not go in more than knee deep. Lets see how long this lasts.

It looks like the storm swell is going to linger for at least another two weeks, then figure another 3-5 days after the seas calm back down for the visibility to improve around the coast. I know the water around Miami had about 12" visibility on friday.
