Survival and Emergency Preparedness

Yes. Down to a depression because it's hitting the mountain ranges on the island. Forecast to go back to a TS. Some will depend on the mountain's on the east end of Cuba interacting with the storm.

We've been getting hammered by thunder storms the last week or so including last night. Flooding, power outages, downed trees etc. I personally haven't lost power (yet) but there is 500K in the area w/o power. I'm talking SE Michigan. Need to go file up the gas cans to make sure I have gas for the gen set.

Still a depression after hitting the high mountains. Forecast to strengthen back into a TS today. Lot of rain the next few days...but then we’ve had thunderstorms almost every day anyway. It’s that time of the year.

We had storms come through on Thursday night. Lost power for about two hours, was about ready to break out the generator and the power came back on.

Fred has moved a lot further west than they forecast, over land in Cuba as well. That's good for Cuba as the storm has stayed sub-tropical in strength and good for our area. Another storm is behind it.

Preps all good - I have no reason to do anything....back to Netflix!

just doing same... rotating normal items like store gas, etc

We've been blessed that these recent storms have stayed weak. Very happy about that.

Weather seems to keep coming out very favorably, which is a good thing. Last I read on Grace, it was heading towards Mexico.

Yep, about to cross over the Yucatan peninsula heading west.
