Our friend Sundance’s home is very close to the projected point of landfall. He is bugging out to a more safe location for a while. See his latest post on CTH:

Sharon’s message is an important one. What those of us who aren’t in the line of fire can do for those who are.

…

Your presence matters. You are not helpless. You, being alive in this moment, standing and watching, bearing witness, loving them – oh, my. This matters.

They are not alone. They know they are not alone. They know you are waiting to hear from them. No matter how long that takes.

Your presence matters. You don’t have to fix anything. Just keep loving. Your presence brings great value. Even when there are no words.

Prayers help too.

    I’m not physically myself in the line of fire but yet I am…

    My son lives in Tampa

    …and what happens to him happens to me no matter how far away he is…

    🕯PRAYERS TO ALL🕯

    Ran across a video that purportedly (I have no reason to doubt it) is a clip of double waterspouts
    in Cuba dropping below the Irma cloud bank. It’s an eye-opener, thinking of the folks in Florida under those severe weather bands.
