1. Redneck Riviera fixen' to get wet.

2. Will remain a TS so it should just be mostly a rain event

Hope Deathsentence gets a soaking

3. Just 30 minutes ago,

a pretty strong storm passed just south of Jacksonville. Lots of thunder and torrential rain.

4. Stay dry

This doesn't have time to strengthen

5. Thanks for the heads up

I’m in SW Florida but we’ve been keeping an eye on “Mindy”...Seems she was just sitting out there for a while. Seasons not over so you stay safe, too. Malaise.. and all.

6. To my ever-loving shame, I thought the song was "Everyone knows it's Mindy"

Well, after looking it up, that song makes a heck of a lot more sense.

[malaise]

7. Tell me more

I am lost

[ornotna]

9. Windy

[malaise]

10. Flew right over my head

I danced to that in my youth

[ornotna]

14. Yes indeed

And when you wanted to get close and slow. We had some great songs to grow up with.

[malaise]

16. That too

My younger sibling loved that one

[Wounded Bear]

11. Hadn't heard it was upgraded. Thanks for the PSA...nt

[malaise]

12. Good thing it didn't have time to strengthen

Heard it's now 45mph.

[Wounded Bear]

13. Yeah, lot of warm water out in the gulf. Could have been worse...nt

[MissMillie]

15. Wouldn't want to have to seek alternate shelter in FL

Imagine looking for safe haven among a crowd of mask-less, infected folks.

I hope people can find a way to stay safe without risking infection.

[malaise]

17. Now I'd wish that for

DeathSentence but it's not likely

[NightWatcher]

18. Woohoo, day off tomorrow (Jax). Wont be taking the boat for work in that mess.

It should chop up the waters too much for research and surveys even if it passes quickly.

19. Enjoy your dayoff
