Seems dangerous at first, but then dies down to nothing. Of course areas that are not built to withstand hurricanes are gonna suffer badly, they do all the time.
Glad it seems to be less than expected.

The reason it died down quickly is that Naples knocked the fkng chit out of it. Godspeed Naples brahs. Key West got hammered from early reports. A few deaths.
Looks like Miami-Dade is out of it right now. Got power back for like 5 seconds, hope that means they're working on local grid, or they just shut it off until winds die down. I'm gonna take it as a sign this area will be back with power soon, last place I was at during Wilma was 2 weeks with no power.

More people died evacuation or preparing for this storm in the US than the actual storm itself. Media played all you imbeciles.

They said that Naples will most likely not get the storm surge they were expecting. Thank goodness

Glad it seems to be less than expected.

First, Irma's brush across the tip of Cuba took away the brunt of the storm's impact. And second, that Florida -- and chiefly south Florida -- is like the most hurricane hardened metropolitan community on the planet (and most certainly in the U.S.).
Irma's impact in the Florida Keys, however, has yet to be determined.

never lost power in Broward. All of the neighborhoods around me did, just got lucky. Shutters are staying up through hurricane season. Also selling my house at the moment. Hope buyers don't mind that the shutters are up.
