Here in St Lucie County it's a disaster. People are going 10 mph.
It took me 2 hours to get home the other night from PB County.
Everyone is on the Turnpike because it's free right now!

Irma couldn't pick the worse area middle of the state. Last hurricane for me no power or tap water for 2 weeks. And it's hot here in September
