    Tentative.

    We, of good judgment wouldn't be rash.

    And I'd love to be a meteorologist. I could be wrong everyday and still have my job.

    That 'thanks' you got there... Lol. We'll see, Tuck.

    Wherever YOU are - stay safe, dry and moderately intoxicated!
     
    tucker Thanks this.

    The keys are now getting the affects of Irma but it hasn't reached land yet.The surge is what's scareing everyone.One lady says she has 8 inches of water in her house.

    I don't know your company's situation but top off your tanks and relocate to higher ground.

    Remember a few years ago the massive flooding in the Atlanta Beltway?

    Don't go crazy now, don't go all the way to Indiana, but if you go, say 100-150 miles out of route tell them, "I was instructed by law enforcement to go to --------, and was escorted by convoy, sorry if they didn't put it in writing."

    If they're lazy enough to leave you in the path of a hurricane for 3 days they're probably too lazy to follow up on any police activity in Atlanta.

    There's more than a few truckstops over by 85 and there's higher elevations outside of Chattanooga so you have options.

    Lol. Bad weather or not being stranded in Atlanta period would be cause for alarm. I would wait it out. You might just get a sweet load to Camden,NJ as a reward.

    Downtown Miami has at least a foot of water and the worst part is yet to come.The homeless refused to seek shelter.Don't know why the shelters have free food.
