Damn. Reminds me of Cairns, AUS. I hope it's just a rough thunderstorm. Florida is used to that.

I know that was one of my options , the unpredictability of everything really messed me up. I bought a one way ticket, so yeah came out the pocket for the peace of mind. If it misses miami I'll be thinking, I should have just stayed but my options were limited after Friday night
Kinda shytty predicament but at least with hurricanes you have time to prepare. ,however way you decide.
Tampa hopefully was preparing this whole time and I wish they didn't just focus on the eye but made sure everyone understood all of South Florida and the coasts were at risk. Initially they did a poor job of that since even I thought going to Tampa would be safer

It's muggy as fukk. Where are the damn winds I was promised ?!Why is it still so gah damn hot outside
I took I-19 all the way out the state. Only traffic I encountered was around gas stations. Which was good because I knew when to pull in and fill up
Just came from 7/11 to get a frozen pizza. Streets are empty, the employees were outside smoking squares. I went in and every smokable item was sold out. Apparently someone went in there last night and bought every pack of cigarettes there. So far so good. My girl brought me 5 gallons of water, canned food, and p*ssy because I fukked her before she left. I wish she would just stay with me but her mom really wants her by her side.

Yep. Good Ol lake Okeechobee. So many little towns and agriculture around that lake. Belle Glade FL in Palm Beach County is near lake Okeechobee. As is the little town of pahokee FL. Those two towns are like NFL factories. Something about the soil in those towns that breeds NFL players. Also those towns are very poverty stricken and have high crime rates and have high AIDS rates.
They're rural but have inner city problems. But overall those towns have an interesting history. Alot of Haitian, Cuban, and Guatemalan migrant workers in the urban Eastern half of palm beach county wake up each day Every morning to take those long bus rides to Belle Glade to work in the sugarcane fields.
Back in the day, mighty hurricanes and torrential rain would cause lake Okeechobee to flood severely, killing Alot of folks in the towns surrounding the lake. That's why the army corps of engineers had to build dams and dykes and such in the lake Okeechobee area. Canals, flood panels, all of that is part of everyday life in South Florida. That's life down bottom. In soflo you learn to live with water and learn to manipulate it to work for you and your daily life, instead of letting the water kill you.
Damn I never knew that, I thought Belle Meade was a well off community
I'm riding this shyt out. No shutters, no sand bags, no water, just weed and liquor. Allapattah, Dade County in this bytch
If I die I need @Brooklynzson to make some rip flea t-shirts and let the proceeds go to my funeral if they find my body
If you dont getcho ass up outta there!
