Shouldn't even be legal. Basically telling the public those less fortunate financially are more expendable. I hate this country sometimes.

Hopefully this doesn't happen....but lets say 10s of thousands can't afford to evacuate and something devastating happens....is the airline at fault?

'We're staying here. We've been here 15 years. We've been told many times to evacuate. I don't think it's going to hit us directly. But it happens we got food water supplies, everything we need.'

That's the unspoken theme of this country though.

Wife wants to go to San Juan Puerto Rico for her birthday in mid October. I was buying the tickets this weekend. Should I hold off on it ?? Not sure how bad they were hit and all I heard about were power outages.

Jet blue I hear capped their flights at 99
One of the reasons why I'll choose to stick with jet blue as much as I can

IDK how true but from what I have read/seen the price increases came from the algorithm they use to account for supply/demand.

Just trying to keep folks updated on a very serious, very real, very scary situation
Of course people should consult actual meteorologists and weather officials

Holy **** man
Latest Euro has it hitting Cuba, still west as ****, possibly later hitting Key West?
Way more west than was modeled yesterday
This **** cray man. I don't know what to think or believe.

New Euro has it making landfall in Cuba for a short time before coming back out and heading NORTH WEST and directly hitting the Keys before making its way towards the Tampa area

****. This is radically different from yesterday.
What is the error margin on this one? We're still like 36 hrs from a possible FL landfall

NT Florida checking in
Been in Florida all my life my family has decided to ride this one out. Since we are more inland and will be on the left side of the hurricane (the weak side) we fill it won't be anything we can't handle.
Not in a flood zone
No trees around
Next to a fire station
3 miles from a new hospital
Next door to a Walmart (still has supplies)
On the rich side of town on the power grid of shelters and a fire station so if power does go out unfortunately for others they make sure our power gets cut on first

Reminder: this thing is huge; all of Florida may be in some way impacted
Gotta give it up for Florida's governor. Don't agree with the man's politics but for the past like 96 hours, the man has been a machine with the statements, executive decisions, and precautionary measures.
If there was any real way to properly brace for a horrific and historic storm such as this, Rick Scott has done a tremendous job (at least in the public eye)
Praying and hoping for the best possible scenario man; a real miracle. I hope everyone is safe.

Where you located? New Euro has it making a significant move west and potentially making landfall near Tampa... All I know is that nobody is safe in southern FL this thing has changed several times and anyone near that area should be prepared for the worst.

The landfall in FL won't be pinpointed down for another 18 hours, it still has to make that turn. Jet streams and air pressure is why it's still too early. And it could strengthen back up more after it leaves Cuba.

Which is why this so scary
The computer modeling is based on atmospheric pressure conditions at the time and their potential for movement throughout the week. I presume they use algorithms to "predict" how and where hurricanes move. They only take the path of least resistance.
