Default Tropical Storm Fay?

You would know it, it has almost rained everyday since obtaining my srt challenger. Now I have Fay barrelling down on me late Wednesday and especially Thursday. The latest predictions show a direct hit. It just depends on whether it strengthens or not, I guess. The latest forecast do not look good, but we will keep our fingers crossed.

I saw a show on PBS that said that Greenland's giant ice sheet could slide into the ocean at any time due to global warming. When it does, the entire state of Florida will be completely submerged under the ocean.

Yep, it will be interesting, haven't ever experienced a direct hit. Not that I want to either.

The forecast looks better, it looks as though it has weakened, thank goodness. She's in the garage and we are now expecting around 50 mph wind so I think we will be fine. Rain bands have started picking up, so the worse is yet to come.

Kris it looks like your in the direct path now, good luck. You may need to put her on some jack stands. I'm in Jax.
