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 Ours is outdated, so needs work.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.

There must be a "Branch Floridian" cult or something behind all the weird stuff that comes out of #Florida. #FL is just too weird for there to be a different explanation that does not involve space aliens.

Speaking of #FL, the #SARS-CoV-2 #coronavirus that causes #COVID-19 was observed in Brevard County sewage the week of the SpaceX launch and around Memorial Day.
I believe @geniusmusing posted a link where they found that virus levels in sewage foreshadowed increases in the number of diagnosed and hospitalized #2109-NCoV patients.

#FL GIS supervisor fired. She says it was because she would not manipulate data to make reopening look safer. https://nu.federati.net/url/270858 [www floridatoday com]
This happened in May, but this article has more detail than what I had seen before now.

#sonTwo thought about applying for an opening at his old employer in #FL. He heard from someone that they just had a major downsizing. Both his former job and the job he would have applied for were eliminated. He’s glad to be in #MO, at a place that isn’t laying off.

Looking at the #NOAA / #NHC site, https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ , I see #Hurricane Dorian is still lashing the Bahamas with wind speeds of 185MPH (that’s about 300km/h) gusting up to 200MPH (that’s about 325km/h) and storm surge up to 23 feet (that’s about 7 meters).
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.

#TropStorm Dorian becomes #Hurricane Dorian over #USVI, expected to be Cat 3 and almost double the size by the time it hits #FL.

Sheriff's Deputy arrested for inaction during 2018 Broward County, #FL, school shooting https://www.baynews9.com/2019/06/04/scot-peterson-arrested-charged-with-child-neglect [ bay news 9 . com ]

After Quackenbush's resignation as California Insurance Commissioner ( https://www.insurancejournal.com/magazines/coverstory/2000/07/10/21521.htm ), he left #CA and went to #HI. He eventually wound up in Florida as a sheriff's deputy ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_Quackenbush ). How does someone with a publicly-documented history of theft and dishonesty become a law enforcement officer, even in #FL?
The indictment against the Georgia Insurance Commissioner reminded me of our own state's issue. AFAIK, #GA has not removed Commissioner Beck from office yet.
