3. I live in Tarpon Springs, all the polling stations look packed....also in Dunedin
when I went to pick up my son from school, the rain didn't seem to be stopping anyone. It was a mad house between voters and parents picking up their kids.

8. Should move fast
The radar I saw made it look like it was intense but fast moving...shouldn't hang on for too long there. Maybe the worst will be over before 7 (poll close time).

5. I just got off the phone with God...
I was sort of pissy with him for sending us such shitty weather but he didn't seem like he cared very much. He kept going on about how America isn't the center of the Universe and that he can't be expected to shift the entire weather pattern just to make our elections more comfortable... blah, blah, blah... I just got mad and hung up.

9. I'm with you, Scoot.
I'm in Central Florida as well - it's pitch dark outside and hurtling down rain. I'm hoping it doesn't affect Dem turnout!

18. It's raining but DH and I walked over to vote.
It's getting worse so hopefully people voted earlier in the day. The count was up at our precinct.
