Time to start prepping for the possibility of Dorian coming to call.
If you're in the "cone of uncertainty", don't wait.
Get started now. Fill water jugs, make ice, get
food that doesn't require cooking. If you have a
generator, buy fuel now.
Pick up around your home and yard. Trim back potentially
problematic limbs.
Put up the pool toys and lawn furniture.
Don't wait until the last minute.
It's Wednesday, the storm isn't scheduled to start impacting Florida and possibly Georgia until the beginning of next week.
Start now.
I just happened to have trimmed back the trees this past Sunday but they haven't been picked up yet.
Since I have 4 teens here, the yard stuff will be breeze.
I do think I will go buy a generator and cans tomorrow after work since my daughter will be coming home from having surgery this Saturday and I have a couple of hurricane air conditioners.
I didn't even realize we were at risk until a couple of hours ago since my daughter had her surgery today but had her car totaled in a wreck the day before after someone ran a stop sign so I have not really been plugged in
May we live in interesting times I suppose.
Hope your daughter's recovery is speedy and complete.
We'll all probably be okay, but it's a good idea to be prepared.
I forget that you live in Georgia. Yes, but prepared and be careful.
We'll probably be fine. I just have been through enough of these things that
I'd rather over-prepare than under.
@balou I've been going through these storms since I was a little kid. My grandparents had a house in south Florida, and I remember watching mailboxes and garbage cans flying down the street. Been through a bunch of the nasty ones. Andrew was terrible.
I never take these things lightly.
