Beautiful weather today here in VA. You can feel the eerie calm before the storm.
Looks like they are predicting Florence may spin south at Wilmington.

No me directly but several of our service branches are closed and one of our technicians got called in for active duty with the National Guard.. he's out 5 days.
Some guy on my softball team said he was going to be back for the game tomorrow because (this is an actual quote): "the islands getting evacuated lol"
Sorry guys. I didn't realize I was strange. Just can't seem to figure out how to do this internet thing.
Even mother nature is out to get Nic Cage.

About 2 hours north of Panama City, FL. AL side.

Mom's in VA. Not sure how deep it will go, but they're going to get a lot of wind and like 20" of rain, predicted. I'm supposed to be spending a week up on the NC coast mid October. That might not be happening now. But otherwise, I'm safe down here near the gulf, which is odd considering we usually get a lot of the hurricanes.
I have a couple friends that live down that way, but they have both already evacuated inland.
