Sustained winds!! Time to tie everything down and run to higher ground. I was down there for hurricane Andrew and my heart goes out the people of FLA. Not a place I'd want to be around. The destruction is unreal and hard to believe. I really hope that people take the warnigs issued and RUN!!! Frances is gaining strength and could be a CAT5 before it hit FLA.

Dang.

That's a really well-defined eye, too.

We all saw what 70 mph sustained winds did during the Inauguration Day storm..........I'd hate to have 145 mph sustained winds headed my way.

I'd say to run to the hills..........but there aren't many hills there to run to.

Amazing the force that can be created as far south as the Carribean when you have a sizeable vacuum created in New York from all the Republicans that suck.


I don't care who you are, that's some funny &hit right there.

I was on a Carribean cruise one year ago this week. It's a damn good thing I didn't really like it that much and didn't re-book for this year!

I was in New Orleans when hurricane Juan hit there in 1985. All I can say is WOW! The power of mother nature is truly unbelieveable.

I hope Wayne is gonna be alright too.

I was on the upper Sky once with gust up to 80, that has got to be close

I just found a pretty cool web site. I was looking through the Florida weather web cams and on one of the Key West web Cams it looks like you can see the storm in the distance!

Looking pretty mean!

In an effort to add a little levity to a scary looking gust of destructive wind:

It may be be of interest to some of you that Rush Limbaugh's home is right in the expected path of the Hurricane.

Please feel free to make jokes about the 'blowhard-windbag' gettin' his due.

Hey, time his broadcast just right and he may save the state of Florida.
