My prayers are with all the families, friends and businesses in all areas!

Warnings have been activated!

This is NOT over yet!! Another landfall is imminent!! Florida: If you have evacuated, always get an all-clear before returning, due to safety. If you have not evacuate, do not venture out into the storm until you get an all-clear, due to safety concerns!!! Often times people who have not evacuated, venture out into unsafe streets. With flooding waters, it is easy to find danger without even knowing you could be in a dangerous area. If you are evacuated, returning to your home area too soon can be tragic if the area is still too dangerous to go back into. Sit tight, and wait for the end of the whole storm.

Category 4 Hurricane, now an official Hurricane Ian again wreaked havoc, and continues to pour more rain being downgraded to a tropical storm. The epicenter of the eye moved inland yesterday morning, near Cayo Costa, in southwest Florida near a protected barrier island just west of highly populated Fort Myers. This storm is rated estimated to be the fourth worst storm ever recorded in the State of Florida, and right now, not being quite over yet, all statistics are still being tabulated. Now it is poised for a second landfall, with many projections based on different scenarios of how upper level winds will steer the storm.

When Florida moves into the clean-up stage, people are going to need some resources in order to recover. See my post: The Danger of Hurricanes & Tropical Activity – Summer & Fall Weather Series + Resources For Recovery.

This is and has been a very serious and terrifying storm, and it is not completely over yet, so continue to take proper precaution now. Be ready for yet more storm surge, more high winds, more power outages and more possible tornadoes. Please follow instructions for proper return after the storm! Continue evacuation orders!!

This slow movement is going to cause way more flooding than the usual faster paced storm would. It is poised to move just east of the Atlantic, then forecast to move inland near Georgia–sometime now to Friday, before it becomes extra-tropical. A busy week, and the slower it moves the more flooding–today, tomorrow and Friday–See more information below on other activity. – www.hurricanes.gov

La Niña is being watched right now, with likelihood of ENSO Neutral development. This year is up in the air, and markedly quieter conditions warrant that we are indeed likely to end up in an ENSO Neutral over this winter season. Eyes are on the occurrence of where the year is on the stage of ocean water warmth in the mid-Pacific region. KEEPING SAFETY IS OF UPMOST CONCERN! Check back for further updates.
