Idalia made landfall around 8am, bu...

I'll be leaving in a couple of hours and see what is happening in Tallahassee. She'll be leaving tomorrow, or even Friday depending on what my trip is like.

Re: Gonna get soaked.....!

Yeah, looks like you're going to get a lot of rain! Last night we had a Monsoon come through, we got a good amount of rain but no flooding in our area. I saw on the news though that in Gila Bend the town declared a state of emergency from flooding. This Monsoon season has been very active compared ...
