On the Third Hand…

[update] 3:30 am EDT Sunday. More updates here.

Note: Jeanne is now a Category 3 hurricane.

Bloggers in the path:

• Florida Cracker, who has gone out to buy more hurricane supplies. Again. She’s in Broward County, under a hurricane warning.
• Tammi at Road Warrior Survival is going west. If you’d like to know how all of us here are feeling, she has described it perfectly in this post.
• Boudicca’s Voice (Palm Beach) is boarded up and staying put, and just as depressed as the rest of us.
• Rand Simberg of Transterrestrial Musings is boarded up and trying to decide whether to stay or to go. [update]Buttoned up and staying.
• Ocean Guy (Jacksonville) is in the probable path but probably won’t be blogging much, as he’ll be celebrating Yom Kippur.
• Andrea Harris, in the Orlando area, is getting a bit sarcastic about being under a hurricane watch warning.
• Babalu Blog (in Dade County) is injecting a bit of humor. Thanks Val! We are in desperate need of a chuckle.
• Steve at Hog on Ice, (Dade County) has his own predicted track for Jeanne. (A bit more humor here.)
• I’m in the path too (that’s a gratuitous link to my ‘natural disasters’ category).
• [update] Also see Deb’s list from Frances. It’s the same group again and she’s got quite a few I don’t have on this list.
• Added from comments
• Shutterblog in the Tampa area. Also very tired of all this. [morn update] Ok and has power.
• Room 101 who is laughing (though it sounds a bit hysterical to me…). Orlando area.
• Another Tampa blogger logs in, Mickey of Splatdot. Still has power and is updating. There’s some interesting commentary about the news services, too.
• Infosponge has been doing some descriptive blogging from the Tarpon Springs area. Go read. This one includes a kamakaze squirrel.

>Weather blogs and hurricane chasers.

• Weatherbug bloggers are headed to Daytona Beach. I’m sure they’ll be updating soon. [update: They are in place and updating]
• Eye of the Storm is tracking. The latest post (as of this writing) is here.
• Fresh Bilge is travelling at the moment but has up a real-time image for us to watch.
• Weatherblog has lots of good information. Jeanne timetable and estimated landfall here.
• Irish Trojan has a good post on The Yom Kippur Hurricane.

I, and others on the west coast, are under tropical storm warning. Looks like we’ll get hit with something, no matter where it makes landfall. Unless it turns north and stays off land entirely. Sigh.

If you are in the path, and I missed linking you, send me a trackback (it will show on the front page) or leave a comment and I’ll add you to the list. Y’all stay safe!

And thanks to the Reverend Mike (not in the path but has Charlotte County in-laws) for posting the hurricane humor email he got. As I said above, we need a chuckle.
