I'm in South Florida and its starting to get people in a "panic". We have no idea where this thing is going to land and how strong its going to be.

I spent 25 mins in line for gas. Luckily my wife and I have stuff prepared in case of an evacuation, but I still feel like I might not have everything.

If you're gonna bounce for a bit, don't wait until the last minute.

My wife and I are not one to do a wait it out and see type of people.

As soon as they say its time to go, we will go.

Labor Day is all messed up. I was gonna go see Talib Kweli on Sunday.

The fact that it just became a category 4 got my GF all worked up. She was tense before but now, she's on the edge.

While it may be category 4 when it hits the east coast (which is NO JOKE), it's predicted to lose steam and be maybe be a category 1 by the time it hits us on the west coast.

We stocked up on stuff earlier in the week. But I'm not super concerned for us. I'm more concerned for my Mom in Savannah, if this thing turns that way. You cats, on the other hand, absolutely need to be safe.

Yeah, I'm starting to get worried, I just hope it dies out quick.

I would think that would be dangerous for the gulf coast areas of Texas, Louisiana, Alabama & Mississippi.
