    What is it in the gulf that is supposed to cause this sharp, almost 90 degree turn north? The models have a consensus on that, but they keep putting that more and more west. I'm beginning to wonder if this thing is going to be in the gulf a lot more than they expect.and not even landfall on the peninsula.

    No offense, but it's pretty ridiculous to not have shudders ready. You knew for over a week this was happening. My family has plywood shudders for every window ready to go in coastal Alabama and we get it less frequently than yall do. And I don't mean for this storm, they've been cut and primed for years, only had to put those particular shudders once or twice.

    Not trying to be a dick, but "because we never get it that bad" is a bad reason to be unprepared.

    Regardless, hope everyone stays safe.

    Plylocks are definitely great and super easy. Helped a neighbor board up for Ivan and they just used nails into the brick. Took forever and no way that's a good hold.

    Oh I know, but one can hope she's not going to restrengthen to the monster she was anticipated to be. Also I know the countries are different, but maybe she weakens fast once she makes landfall in FL? Just trying to find positives, most updates have been bad for me. :P
