Here's the latest on Irma:
Quote:
At 5 a.m. EDT, the storm was centered 60 miles north of Tampa. Its eyewall — containing the storm’s most violent winds — had passed northeast of Sarasota. The storm center was plowing north-northwest at 18 mph and expected to weaken as it moves along the northwestern coast of Florida.

Hurricane-force wind gusts were also quite possible on the east coast of parts of Florida into early Monday, the hurricane center said, thanks to Irma’s large wind field.

Irma’s peak winds of 75 mph make it a Category 1 hurricane (down from a Category 4). The National Hurricane Center said Irma is expected to weaken to a tropical storm Monday morning and to a tropical depression by Tuesday afternoon.

Last time I spoke to my bro (yesterday afternoon), I told him I would stop bothering him so he could conserve his phone's battery life since powerages were expected. Haven't heard from him since, but I pray that he, his fam and all our extended fam are well! Will share more as I learn more...

According to websites I've checked, over 7 million people are without power.

It's Monday, WARRIORS!

Wishing each of you a totally marvelous day in every single way possible!

Stay WARRIOR Strong!
