Guess we'll be seeing the first hurricane during Covid

They are predicting only a glancing blow to Florida. And I think at this moment it’s not a hurricane but expected to strengthen overnight. Still, it will be interesting to see how it plays out.

We got hammered harder than what they were predicting, the eyewall passed about 20 miles north of us. It’s not fun getting nailed with a hurricane and dealing with a pandemic at the same time. Fortunately the hurricane leaves the next day and the rest is getting the power back on and cleaning up the mess it left behind; the same can’t be said about the corona.
