LOL ~ My sister is heading to the Keys tomorrow ~

[dolphinslady]

We live in St Lucie/Indian River County and she is going on vacation tomorrow to the Keys.

We're all curious to watch Chris...I mean we're prepared after the past 2 years of seasons but still... I just hope he doesn't get over a 3. Francis and Jeanne were bad enough.

And the islands surely don't need to be hit again.

The question that needs to be asked is how long she will be there?

[Canelaw99]

Yeah...she might make a backup hotel reservation somewhere on the mainland, just in case.....don't guarantee with a cc unless necessary, but hotels can fill up really quickly when the Keys are evac'd....

I almost for certain see an evacuation of the Florida Keys this weekend.

[dolphinslady]

Yeah, so she would be heading there for 10 days, lol. And her BF has family flying in from out of town and they rented a house down there for that long.

I know the Keys evacuate non residents prior to residents but at least she's just going to Key Largo...not very far down.

It's a waiting game at this point. And the local paper said August was going to be a 'busy month' for Florida.

Here we go again...

I manage a resort in Islamorada and most of our guests have cancelled. If it stays on the current track the tourists will be booted tomorrow night or first thing Friday.

I was planning on being in Key West on Sunday afternoon for a few days - cancellled! Oh well, we're accustomed to that living along the coast. Key West will just have to wait.

Don't think it's going to be a good weekend for a vacation in the keys.
