    Hurricane Irma is expected to hit Florida sometimes in the next 24 hours; from there, the projected path is up through the state, then Georgia and Tennessee. However, adjoining states: Alabama, South Carolina and North Carolina, while not in the direct path, will have rain and sustained winds. I live in South Carolina, have co-workers in Florida and North Carolina; please take a moment to think about the people affected. Things can be replaced, people can't. As of right now, my area is expecting rain and wind to start on Monday, last until sometime Tuesday. Forecast is 2 to 4 inches of rain, but sustained winds of 15 - 20 miles per hour and gusts up to 50 miles per hour. This will break trees and cause multiple, extended power outages. The trees are a concern for my family because our house is surrounded by 60 foot oak trees.

      I live in North Florida, Jacksonville and it is projected to come very close to us on its migration north. Looks like sustained winds of 70 to 80 mph, if so everything I have will be gone.

            I'm about 85 miles due north of Panama City, FL. and expecting about the same conditions as you. I fully expect power outages and some flooding around the area Monday pm and Tuesday. I've got family in Miami and Orlando who will likely be hit harder if the thing goes where they are predicting...and so far, all the models have been wrong as it seems hell bent on getting into the Gulf of Mexico...good for the eastern side, very bad for the western side!

                Since management believes people are things(*), all things are therefore replaceable. (*) Two fucking words: Human. Resources.
