Remarks:
Family and i have evacuated to Punta Gorda airport.  No govt. Services here. This is not a shelter. Wind reported buy our station is 40 gust 45.  Irma is still 6-7 hours away.  Tampa  bay reports dry from wind from east.  Water going out from leadin edge of hurricane will come in at tail end.  This is my third hurricane.  It is moving very slow which gives it time to wear down structures.  Florida Power and Light reports 17,000  workers already staged, plus support for those persons.  Pray for them, it is a dangerous job, pray for us.  I will post hourly as possible. I an close to ground zero.
