Hurricane Dennis

[Cincy'sMom]

Stay safe everyone!

It's very eerie out this morning. I'm surprised I got any sleep at all. I stayed up until 3 debating on whether not to sleep or to stay up worrying. I finally pulled all three dogs into bed with me and quickly fell asleep.


It's very windy and just dull outside. Leaves everywhere.
We're waiting for the next band to hit us. Hopefully when Dennis strengthens he doesn't decide to pay us a visit.

[Kfamr]

We're getting a very bad band right now.

I don't know how I missed this.

I do not live in Florida, but oh do I feel your pain! We're supposed to be getting hit all next week, and when we get hit, we're all going to be babies about it. It's going to be NOTHING like what's going on there.

Floridians, please stay safe. Keep your pets with you, and if they tell you to evacuate, PLEASE do so. All of you will be in my prayers.

I have The Muttlies on their leashes and harnesses "just in case" It's really nasty here right now. Trying to keep my mind off it all.


We're in a tornado watch right now, and then a tornado warning until 4.

[chocolatepuppy]

My prayers are with all of you.

It's getting gusty here right now. However, I can still hear planes taking off from TIA so evidently it's still okay for them to be flying. I went through some nasty rain on the way to work tonight. It's supposed to be getting worse as the night goes on. If it gets to back I'm going home, who cares about work!!

[Daisy and Delilah]

Well everybody, sure looks like a hurricane coming through here right now and we're not getting any warnings for anything on tv. I can't even locate a good report. The wind is blowing very badly and it's raining sideways. I am getting an upset stomach to look outside. I didn't even take in plants or secure anything so I'll probably find all my stuff next door tomorrow morning. I'm very very concerned about all you people on the other coast. You must all be terrified. Everybody stay safe and keep us updated if you don't lose power. I think ours might go at any minute. I'm thinking of everybody. Be careful!!

Please stay safe, Amber & Terry.


It's been very gusty here all day. We have gotten very little rain.
Kiara just almost pooped in the pool because she was scared!!


She was outside and I was holding the screen door open. Well, She got scared and she came running in and started going again by the pool. She turns in circles before she poops and her butt was directly over the pool! I yelled for her to get outside and thankfully none came out! Poor girl was so scared though.

KayAnn and other Floridians I am thinking of you constantly. My brother-in-law in the Keys sent me a picture of his parking lot this morning which he took on his cell phone. He has been without power since 10:00 p.m. last night. He said the rain and wind has been unbelievable even though Dennis never directly hit there.

This was taken around 11:00 am today - -

[gemini9961]

That pic yikes!!! We still have power at work but our phones have been coming and going. If the power goes out, I'm out.

[Kfamr]

I keep wanting to just lay down and relax watching a TV show or something but i'm too scared to change it off the news now, not being able to see what's going on outside.

[Daisy and Delilah]

Thank you Pam for posting that picture. My sympathy goes out to those folks down there in the Keys. They are such tiny, fragile islands, I don't know how they get through these things as well as they do. I saw pictures on the news of Key West earlier and it was unbelievable. We are still getting some very gusty winds and heavy rains intermittently. Daisy and Delilah are running to the windows and growling and barking at the trees whipping back and forth. They're scared to death and very confused about what's happening. Of course Delilah is trembling and panting from the thunder. On top of that, our neighbors are having another 4th of July celebration with the loud poppers between rain showers. It's going to be a verrrrrry long night. Stay safe Kay, Amber, Kari, and all Pet Talkers in the path of the storm. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you and your beloved furkids.

Good Luck Panhandle People & their Pets
This is Now a Strong Cat.4 storm...winds 145 w/ gusts 160 M.P.H.
They say it is 5 to 10 times the Strength and Size of Ivan...
Hope you are all either Evacuated or Hunkered down by now...they say it will strike in about 3 to 4 hours...

My Thoughts and Prayers are with you all
Good Luck

Nicole are you guys getting hit at all over there?


We still haven't had anything too bad *knock on wood* but whow knows if that'll change. Good luck to those of you who have to take care of the rest of Dennis for us.


My uncle lives in the panhandle and we're hoping he's out by now, or safe. Him and his wife Terry and their two dogs.
