After IRMA when everything was nice and sunny gas was hard to come by for a while (especially on 441 because there was no power for a week) because it was being sent down to S. FL where "it was needed most."

I topped off at the Shell station on Bella Cruz and 441 about 4:30. No waiting.

I just heard an official on television say one of the things to do was go to a gas station and top of your tank. Why do that if you had no plans to leave and you already had a half to a two thirds of a tank of gas? The news station also showed the gas stations around Miami and Orlando that were closed and out of gas. There could be a good reason to top off your gas tank if you were leaving in the morning but this certainly wouldn’t be a retiree who wasn’t. Leave the gas for working people and for those that need it.

Ho-Hum Yawn..... Rewind every time same playback...... the same scenario every single time. It really is boring the local TV Stations compete with the most up to date forecast etc. With the " Drama "

Every 2-3 years the same thing Drama, Frenzy, Water, Stock Up, Suggestions, It really is borderline comical the way the local TV Meteorologist present the forecast.

Like they in some cases they are on the " Apprentice".

Look Chill Out, by Friday this will be .................................................. ..AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. ........OOOOOOOOOOOOO Ver

Good Night

PS: Our upcoming 3rd Hurricane ...... Yawn
