Here's one about to land somewhere around Bay Point/Pittsburg (CA) (if it didn't hit those power lines). Image

#hamradio #SARNET amateur radio operator at an EOC in Florida SARNET saying they have 50 shelters, but not enough radio operators to staff them. SARNET has not yet been formally activated, but expected soon. #HurricaneIan
#HurricaneIan radio operator (earlier) said he had booked a hotel (farther inland) to ride out the hurricane, but they cancelled his reservation (closing because of the hurricane)... so he is going to just sleep in his truck.
#HurricaneIan #SARNET a different radio operator commenting that the ground is already saturated from rainfall, which is going to be a problem with so much more rain forecast.

He's looking at this scenario -- storm surge Tampa/Ft. Myers. Image
