Good morning, Ontario. Looks like the Sunshine State will get a visit from tropical storm Erika. We are about 50% along with our storm preparations. Ran the generator yesterday and bought 20 gallons of gasoline. I have propane for the grill. Got to get some bottled water and some canned goods and we will be set.

The humidity here is about 80% which is normal for this time of year.

Thank you Gerry. There is a good possibility that it will fizzle out. We will have to see what happens when it crosses the island of Hispanola which has 10,000 foot mountains.

I hope it dies out before reaching you Carl.
If not do your best to stay safe.
Do you cover your windows etc?

In the summer i think we are usually around 20 to 30% most days.

Thank you, Ian. We won't cover them for a tropical storm or a cat 1 hurricane. I will board them up for cat 2 and higher.

I like your humidity level!
