lnxw48a1: There is a “castle” in #FL that was apparently built by one man, who quarried the stone, trimmed and fitted it, and assembled them without mortar. The site is also called #Florida’s Stonehenge. This is according to #Wikipedia. I did not bother to check anywhere else.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coral_Castle [en wikipedia org]

lnxw48a1: I made sure not to watch the Weather Channel / weather\.com site, because am not thrilled by watching someone standing in the wind and rain, telling us how bad it is. #GS3 did want to check on the wurricanes at mid-day today, so we looked a bit at #Hurricane #Ian as it slid into the #FL coast. He asked about storm surge (which is a term I only heard in the past 3-5 years; I have been watching weather and visiting weather sites for much longer) so we talked about the ocean water covering people's houses.

lnxw48a1: The 12:00 Eastern Time update lists storm surge of up to 18 feet above normally dry ground. That is in addition to any tides and in addition to any fresh water flooding due to rainfall. #Hurricane #Ian is extremely dangerous for #FL. Probably even worse than #Fiona was for #PR.

lnxw48a1: https://nu.federati.net/url/282779 #FL Governor fights against court order. He is trying to prevent school districts from requiring masks. There’s a simple solution: If an unmasked person gives #COVID-19 to someone else, make them responsible for the affected person’s medical costs, lost wages, and such. In the case of students at schools, make the parents of the infector responsible for the costs. (If the infector is an adult, they can bear the responsibility themselves.) Surely Florida’s Governor’s fight for personal and parental responsibility includes financial liability.

lnxw48a1: By the way, the #FL building collapse shows once again why we need to include non-human household members in emergency and evacuation plans. People chased out of the part of the building that did not collapse left pets behind, but were never permitted back into the building to retrieve them. When they demolished that part of the building, one can presume the pets were all killed in the collapse.

lnxw48a1: https://nu.federati.net/url/274215 If you haven’t made an emergency evacuation plan yet, it is time to do so now. Ours is outdated, so needs work. But basically, if you’ll need to bring it in an emergency, you should know where it is and be able to grab it quickly. If you’ve got pets or children in your home, or if you’ve got someone with health issues, you should never wait until authorities give evacuation orders. Be ready to leave and to get beyond the danger area BEFORE the crowds try to flee. When #sonTwo and his wife were in #FL, they spent something like 12 hours one time getting from Miami / Ft Lauderdale to Tampa. Another time, they spent over a day getting out of FL into #GA, only to find that there were no places in southern GA with space available ... I think they wound up going to #MS to avoid the storm.

For #FL, it looks like the storm center will be North of Miami, but a storm is not a dot. It is an irregular roundish spiral-like area that can be hundreds of miles across. Nearly all of Florida (and parts of #GA, #SC, #NC, #VA) is likely to face some part of this storm. On the West Coast, #TropStorm Julliette is heading away from land, so its progrssion toward hurricane status should not be of major importance.

lnxw48a1: My bedroom is 59F / 15C, 19% humidity. It’s 40F / 4C, 41% outside. This is a lot warmer than places like #CO, #WY, #MI; without being too hot, like #FL and #PR.

lnxw48a1: I ran into someone from #FL, who used to come to #PR as a child to visit relatives. He told me that his uncles used to always complain about the shoddiness of the infrastructure here. He specifically mentioned electric cables hanging low enough that people could grab onto them. That surprised me, because I see that frequently, but I thought it was just because they re-attached everything in a rush.

lnxw48a1: @geniusmusing @dude Or you move. There's a reason so many northerners live in #FL.

lnxw48a1: At first, I thought about stopping at Pollo Tropical, but I was not impressed last time I was there (and neither was #sonTwo when he went to some of their #FL locations). Maybe it is time that #PR gets some #SoCal food places: #In-N-Out Burger, #Del_Taco, #El_Pollo_Loco
