We know it is fall break and are getting asked all sorts of questions in the store about this weather. Hurricanes and tropical systems are a natural part of life along the Gulf Coast, and staying informed is the key to staying safe. Weather can change quickly, so it’s important to know how to prepare, where to get accurate local updates, and what steps to take before, during, and after a storm.
We’ve gathered resources, practical tips, and local guidance to help you navigate storm season with confidence:

Our favorite weather man to follow is Mike's Weather Page. He posts regularly and goes live to show all the models and describe his interpretation of the weather.

The official pronunciation of Hurricane Isaias is ees-ah-EE-ahs (ee-sah-EE-ahs), with the primary stress placed on the third syllable.

And of course Tyler will go live or post videos over the next few days to try and keep all of you who are not here locally informed and see our normally beautiful Cape San Blas.

Praying for safety for all and we are watching this closely.
