I am sitting in a rest area on alligator alley after driving across the state of Florida then down the east coast and back across on alligator alley. We are an hour and half from home below the storm. If the storm had stayed on schedule we would be home now

Hurricane-force winds felt near Fort Myers as Ian approaches Gulf Coast near Category 5 strength
Hurricane Ian’s eyewall, the region surrounded by the strongest winds, started to move ashore late Wednesday morning, as the near-Category 5 storm began its assault on the Gulf coast. The high winds are expected to produce a storm surge of up to 18 feet on Florida’s southwest Gulf coast.

Scottie's Playtime 
Scottie, many of us are not aware of exactly where you live so just naming towns and locations (Alligator Alley???) doesn’t give us much clue on whether you’re in danger or not. I’m sure many of your readers/visitors are concerned so hopefully you’ll be able to provide more details.

Will be thinking about you Scottie and Ron.
Best wishes.

Naples and parts of Ft Myer now under 3ft of the Gulf – could be total loss for many people.

Just try to stay safe. My niece left Clearwater and went to Orland. Now it looks like they are in for a direct hit.

Here’s to my getting here late enough, that you all are home and dry. Well, as dry as possible, and no flooding.
