Hunkering down for Fay


Tropical Storm Fay is blowing through Florida, 2nd and 3rd days of school have been cancelled, and it was a miraculous return for dad coming home from a SWA trip. I made it back to MCO as one of the few flights this day.

National Weather Center says:

THE CENTER OF FAY IS FORECAST TO APPROACH THE EAST COAST NEAR CAPE CANAVERAL AROUND MIDNIGHT. STRONG WIND GUSTS WILL ACCOMPANY THE MAIN CORE OF FAYS CIRCULATION...WITH GUSTS JUST UNDER HURRICANE FORCE

...PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... RESIDENTS THAT LIVE IN PROXIMITY OF THE FORECAST CENTER TRACK OF FAY...AND TO ITS RIGHT...SHOULD STAY INDOORS! IT IS NOT WISE TO BE OUTDOORS THIS EVENING. PEOPLE SHOULD BE PREPARED TO QUICKLY MOVE TO THEIR SAFE ROOM WITHIN THEIR HOME OR SHELTER IF A TORNADO WARNING IS ISSUED FOR THEIR AREA...OR IF DAMAGING WIND GUSTS ARE REALIZED.
