      Yeah, I'm in Canton, and it's bucketing down. This isn't Helene yet, "just" that front that's swooping down from further west and will eventually form the west edge of the "chute" that will guide Helene northward. It'll be early Friday morning before Helene's winds hit us. But from now until then, lots of rain and thunderstorms. Glad I'm on a hill!

    Thank you, Levi! I went to my friend's house in Cape Coral at 9am to watch Charley hit Tampa in 2004, we were in her closet at noon after it changed course and only one weather caster stepped out and said so. The storm was headed straight at us until it bounced off of Sanibel and shifted to it's landing spot in Punta Gorda/Charlotte Harbor.
    Things can change really fast, y'all. And this is already a MONSTER size storm like you said.

    The 50kt+ radius of maximum wind has contracted slightly from 90 nautical miles northeast and southeast of the center to more like 40-60 miles however, this storm looks like it's going to be very large. It definitely has that very ominous look to it and I wouldn't be shocked to see the big bend region see upwards of 15-20 feet of surge somewhere in there. Definitely don't take this storm lightly.

I walk an hour to get to work but they don't care. gotta be open for the 0 customers that will come in. So sick of companies not taking storms seriously or giving us time to be off work to prep our house for the storm.
