On the bright side, it should be a beautiful weekend. Always is after a storm. Long as a tree don't fall on my roof, I should be good to go.

Here's what happened the last time one came through

dang R100, hope all of you boys from FL make it out without any damage. Even Tracker and Limey! They're prolly huddled up together right now in Tracker's garage! For real do', you boys take care during those hellacious storms!

I really don't want to offend anyone here, but why would anyone want to live in a part of the world so frequented by severe storms?

I mean, I like where I live. Sure it rains in the winter, but I ride year round without any severe difficulties. June through October is Fantastic from a motorcyclist point of view, and the last serious storm was in 1962. Rarely do we get much (if any) snow. The days over 100Âº F are few. Maybe 4 or 5 a year.

Actually, I lied about all of that. Please don't move here like everybody else is.

The rain is welcomed .we have had gusts of wind around 40 mph . this has just been a mild tropical strom I dont start to get worried until it has reached a Cat 3 storm . No lighting just rain and wind OH YEAH just the way I like it

Hmm... year-round ridin' weather perhaps? Lotsa reasons.

I am one of the few native-born folks left in this li'l danglin' phallic participle of a state. I'm so old I can remember when you could drive along the coast and see the beach - not mile after mile of condo and resorts. It was a lot different then. But I won't start on that rant.

Anywhere ya go, ya got weather. Arizona? Heat and drought. Washington? Rain and snow. New England? Nor'easters an' snowstorms. Upper midwest? Gets so cold your breath freezes. Midwest? Tornadoes. California? Earthquakes an' mudslides.

Ya pays yer nickel an' takes yer choice.

we have been hit allot in the past few years, granted. But we have not been hit directly (palm beach county) for fifty years, yes it sucks,but we will survive. Just keep bringing them tourist dollars
