SSL 302 ~ Tracking HURRICANE FLORENCE and TS ISAAC
I know some of you are concerned for us during this time of hurricane mayhem, but rest assured we are well out of reach of the current storms, including Tropical storm ISAAC that is currently headed for Dominica.
The main focus right now is on HURRICANE FLORENCE as it heads straight for the US East Coast and looks to target North Carolina head on… I hope you are not in this area, but if you are it is time to start taking action and either leave the coast, or batten down and start gathering and storing reserves…
HURRICANE FLORENCE is scheduled to arrive as a MAJOR Hurricane, which means Category 4 or higher.. and that is not good. Best wishes to any of you in the path.. take care and stay safe.
Regards,
Captain Rick
