Named Michael. My kids in P'cola are nervous, as it's supposed to head that way.

...MICHAEL COULD DEVELOP INTO A POTENTIALLY CATASTROPHIC EVENT FOR
THE NORTHEASTERN GULF COAST...

.NEAR TERM [Through Tonight]...

There isn`t much to worry about tonight with only isolated showers
early this evening and overnight lows in the mid 70s.


.SHORT TERM [Tuesday Through Wednesday Night]...

Key Points...

1. Hurricane Michael is forecast to strengthen into a major
hurricane as it moves towards the area.

2. Life threatening storm surge along portions of the Florida
panhandle and big bend coastlines, widespread power outages from
strong winds, and localized flash flooding are all possible.

3. Preparations should be rushed to completion.

Details...

A potentially catastrophic event is developing. Michael has been
upgraded to a hurricane and is forecast to continue to strengthen as
it moves toward the northern Gulf coast, reaching major hurricane
status Tuesday evening before landfall. With landfall expected along
the Florida Panhandle or Big Bend coast Wednesday, significant
impacts are expected across the area with impacts beginning late
Tuesday to early Wednesday. These will include the possibility of
life-threatening storm surge, widespread power outages, downed trees
blocking access to roads and endangering individuals, structural
damage to homes and businesses, isolated flash flooding and the
potential for a few tornadoes. The main change with this forecast
package is that Michael is stronger and slightly slower than the
previous forecast, increasing our threat for higher winds and wind
gusts as well as storm surge.


.LONG TERM [Thursday Through Monday]...

Michael should be exiting the CWA by the start of the long term,
or shortly thereafter - there are still some differences timing
wise with guidance. Behind the storm, high pressure will build in
and will finally see highs in the low to upper 80s with lows in
the upper 50s to mid 60s. Once Michael exists the CWA, PoPs remain
limited through the long term.

Hope you (X) and all my friends along the coast are okay through this hurricane.  My heart's with you folks.

and the Hurricane Hunters are not getting all the data

I chatted with a friend today who has a house at St Joseph's Bay (right on the water).  He's got his house boarded up, and it's on pilings, but it's surrounded by big pines...  not good.
He had an offer on the house earlier this year, and almost accepted.  But he loves being there, so he passed on the sale.
LOTS of stories like his.  Good people along the coast!
