TCI too.

No matter how much prep we do, I am never comfortable at this time of year.

I think this one will spare you. I’m watching those following this one. Three months of watching and stress.

Given that it will be a Major hurricane when is passes north of you, you may well have at least TS conditions. Stay alert as always.

Dis is a big ass Cat 5 Erin now.

I am still concerned. The outer bands on the. Curremt trajectory will drench this place..which already floods after 5 mins of rain.

But also...one little. wobble in the path and we are looking at Cat 5 winds.

To be honest...the islands up this side are better able to handle wind over water.

Heavily overcast gloomy day. Been raining since 3pm and steady wind. We been inside since 1pm.

Just went outside. Fee things blown around....lots of green leaves on the deck.

But the hurricane is passing well north of all the islands and we are just getting rain bands.

We've been very fortunate this time round.
