Hurricane Rita back in 2005 followed the current projected path and destroyed Ricks for the second time in two years. Ivan had demolished Rick's in 2004. They were nearly done with construction when the worst happened.
The cliff hotels are moving their guests to inland hotels today. If we do get high seas, LTU may not be the best place to be.

The outer bands of wind are starting to pick up force, rain should be coming shortly. Flow internet has already gone out. Will keep you informed as long as we can!

Let me guess...Robin is on duty. Enjoy and keep the picks coming.

It is exactly 5:00am and the rain has started. No winds at all and the rain is coming down like a light rain that you wouldn't even have to make a mad dash to your car. A simple brisk walk would be fine.
Re: Will There Be A Hurricane Party Next Week?
Just noticed something unusual, when all tropical storms strengthen, the barometric pressure lowers. The lower the pressure, the stronger the storm. Bad ones are usually under 950mb (millibars). Really bad ones are below 900mb.
Ian formed at 1006mb as a tropical depression on the 23rd. It is currently at 1002mb, an insignificant decrease. To reach category 2 strength by tomorrow, there should be a big drop in the pressure to something under 990mb.
We will keep watching those numbers.
