If you haven't heard, Hurricane Irma is headed straight for Grassroots Motorsports' world headquarters in Holly Hill, Florida, And that unfortunately means that instead of bringing you another great episode of our weekly live show, Grassroots Motorsports LIVE!, we'll be preparing our homes and families for the coming storm. After the damage we received from last year's Hurricane Matthew …

Stay safe! I'm just across the county in DeLand, work in Daytona, and sweating this one.

JG can live feed his hurricane prep with his iPhone like the first few episodes.
Stay safe guys!
Stay safe, and best of luck weathering this storm.
I'd tune in for a live feed of that. Kinda different.
If y'all flee north, i have a place for you.
Board up the house and get the hell outta there. This one's no joke. Safe travels!
Bug out and be safe. If you need a place to crash on the West coast (Tampa area), drop me a note.
Please, just stay safe. We'll sort the rest out later.

Trying to get my parents to leave. This one looks bad.
Learned why there is no such thing as a level 6 hurricane, because they are rated by amount of damage expected, and a 5 is expected to destroy just about everything in its way
Cannot not believe the wine cellar of Branson on Necker island he is hunkered down in ... ?

Might as well use it if you've got it! Plus, it's that many less people to jam onto whatever last flights, etc. out of there.
Stay safe. My brother and his family are leaving the South Daytona area and coming up this way to stay with us. Not taking any chances.

I've seen pictures of some moderate wine cellars. They're bigger and nicer than my house (and surely cost much more to build).
I live in Montgomery Alabama, straight up 65. If ANYONE needs help or dialysis (weird I know but I'm a Biomed at the biggest dialysis company in the world, Fresenius) feel free to call me, Jim at 334 202 6275, even if you just need a friendly place to park for a few or someone to feed you.
Batten the hatches for this one. The big choppers just stopped flying over my house yesterday, hopefully the crews get a brief rest before they need to cruise around Florida.
Stay safe.

I am sweating it considering I live 50 yards from the marsh in Neptune beach FL. Ughhh... my family is leaving Friday for Georgia.
I will be working in the Emergency Operations Center all weekend so at least I can look forward to the overtime.

Carli asked about you and stampie. I told her you're a cop you get to stay.
BIL plans to send his wife and kids to GA and "stay with his house" for whatever reason he has. Probably considers facing a hurricane easier than evacuating with his wife (no comment) and 3 kids and 3 dogs and his mother in law.
We're still watching but current plans are to head to upstate SC at my dad's. Kinda surprised at my employer's directive today of GTFO if you feel the need. I see a lot of OT in my future.
Scary video from Saint Maarten. Please, if you are in the path of this storm, GTFO.
