Coast Guard District 7 is all over this!

Hype machine ramping up, not a hurricane, not close to being a hurricane, passing over haiti and cuba will prevent it from strengthening, but oh boy, it might(MIGHT) become a weak hurricane next week near florida. Big deal.

It's a big deal if you live there!

i'm flying down to daytona, florida on sunday...hope it doesn't hit up that direction lol.

Feel bad for the Hatians...still got people living in tents from the earthquake 3 years ago. Have done some trips to
Haiti to start a school and get water to a community. Never seen anything like it in my life.

Small hurricanes are not a big deal in florida, will there be some damage? Sure, will there be any deaths, maybe - a tree falling or a car accident type, is it a big deal...nope!

By the way, it's raining here right now, if my roof leaks, it's a big deal only to me.
