KK said to let you all know she's doing well so far. She has spotty reception so can't log on long enough to post.

Thanks KitKat :heart: We're fairly safe here. I think the major threat is flooding and possible waterspouts or tornados. Though tornados aren't typical for the Keys, but who knows with this storm.

Be careful, it looks like you're in it's path or extremely close to it. My thoughts and prayers continue to be with you and Rock, as well as everyone else in Ian's path. :heart:

I was thinking the same thing, looking at the path, that KK is very close to that or in that path :/

Don't know about where you are, but Key Largo didn't seem to be in the direct path. But that area is very small isn't it?
So difficult to guesstimate but when looking on Google maps that whole area seems like 10 meters wide, hihi. Not where I'd wanna be during a major storm. (says me who lives below sea-level in a storm & flood prone area, lol)
The same for where you work, Isla something. Seems so narrow, like barely 10 meters. Would give me the creeps to be there, but I guess in real life it'll be somewhat bigger, hahaha.

In any case, wishing you all are safe and have prepared well for this!!

Key Largo ranges from 1 to 2.5 miles wide. I'm about a half mile from the Bay. Where I work, I'm right on the water. Flash flooding during peak high tide times poses the most danger. Fortunately tomorrow, high tide will be while I'm working, not while I drive to and from work. We'll be under a storm surge, flash flooding watch through Friday. But only 2 to 4 feet, which would obstruct driving, but won't be life threatening, unless you're crazy enough to be

North of Fort Myers is anticipating up to an 18 foot storm surge.

Being careful as I can.


Everything is closed, roads are flooded
due to rain, and no reason to go anywhere
anyway.

Glad you're okay Rock.

Other than some coastal flooding and a few tree branches here and there, the Upper Keys was spared any major damage.

KitKat is safe but she has no power. She said that Ian was Cat1 when it hit her area and she was dealing with lots of wind and flooding. flowerforyou
