GOOD LUCK Tommorrow and Wednesday for all Florida breeders, keepers, hobbyists, dealers, etc. Hope we dont get hit too bad, but it looks like we are going to get some bad weather. I know Im going help some fellow breeders tommorrow, if they need it. Baton down the hatches and try to ride this one in. LOL.
Anyway, GOOD LUCK!

It really shouldn't be too much, unless it stalls south of the keys or moves eastwardly. Anyway we really need it here in Central Florida!

Good Luck,

Yes. the rain would be nice. But the winds, power outages, damage and all that other crap that comes with a 'cane can stay away.

Well, it's not even a hurricane so the main problem with this one might just be the flooding rains. The winds are minimal tropical storm strength (45mph) so the winds shouldnt be a major issue. Just lots of rain mainly.

HOW THE HELL would you think that we need it here in Central Florida? I know I don't need any more in Central Florida. Getting hit with 2 back to back in 04 and the others that have hit us is far more than I ever would hope to go through.

Gas lines 'mass water and battery shortage,plywood,generators are hotter than bananna balls.And this is just a storm.Media weather reporter time to shine we should see them on beach anytime now telling us it's time to bunker down DRAMA.
I hope everyone has no problems but those who live here are already waitng in lines .WE know electric will go out just don't know for how long.So if you have eggs incubating and you are in central florida I have generator running mine if you need help email me good luck

At least this time it will not drop to 50 degrees with no power....Wilma kicked all mine off feed last year just before breeding season but for the most part, I have noticed that my snakes feed very well when a tropical system is near. And we do not need a major storm...tropical storm is fine, we need the rain but NO MORE HURRICANES!!!!!!! send em north....you guys need to get in on the fun....Makes me wonder why I live here.....oh ya, swimming and scuba diving in January and 18 month old 1400g ball pythons...LOL
