Tropical Storm Turns Nasty

Sunday night saw us returning home to Miami. Home to a city getting ready for Tropical Storm Ernesto which was about to hit Cuba.
The mandatory evacuation of non-residents in the Florida Keys came into effect on Sunday night, with Ernesto expected to hit the open Carribean waters North of Cuba on Tuesday after drenching the communist island. Feeding off these warm waters, forecasters expect it to hit Floridas's shores as a hurricane, probably a Category 1.
All public schools and universities are closed tomorrow (Tuesday) and Wednesday. Gas is already a rare commodity in our area, as everone is trying to fill up.
No-one's expecting this one to be as strong, although it is heading straight for Miami. We're gonna stay put this time and ride it out. Enjoy ourselves and spend some nice time at the pool and next to the bbq-grill!
