Key message from the NHC:

Now is the time to rush to complete all preparations to protect life
and property in accordance with your emergency plan. Ensure you are
in a safe location before the onset of strong winds or possible
flooding. Ensure you have multiple ways to receive weather warnings.

We are running out of time to make preparations and leave.  Everything needs to be buttoned up over the next few hours.

A lot of storms brewing and there is a new tornado watch from the SPC for parts of Central/South Florida.  The tornado threat will increase through the day.  Quite a bit of rain already falling and that will do nothing but increase.
