Anyone Have a "Storm is Coming So I Might be Out of Touch" jpg or gif?

dmhcollectiblesMember

I remember from my old Sparedollar days (and before I lived in Florida myself!) that some people there prepared a small jpg or gif image that you could put on your auctions and eBay store to warn people that you were in a hurricane/storm path and that buyers should be patient because you might be out of touch for a few days.

Does anyone have such a beastie that those of us that might need it would be able to use?

Sooner the better, lol. The very center of the projected path of Alberto is right over my head.

Thanks in advance!

Sorry..I'm out of town and not checking on the boards for questions. Luckily I have my backup disks with me for the graphic you need.

Here ya go!

You can alter the text for the hurricane du jour. The one I have at home was altered to have no name of hurricane.. just that I'm in the path of a hurricane. I learned after the last 2 seasons not to have a name. <wink>

Take care, Donna

Hi to you too

High yes, dry no (pouring rain like buckets) but I think the worst is past now. But my poor doggie is crossing her legs... she doesn't like to go out in rain to pee (or, err, you know).

Schools are closed tomorrow.

I'm sleeping in. I'm not too worried. I should get some wind gusts of about 35 miles per hour, maybe 40. Lots of rain though.

You're both getting seasoned to these storms.
<smile>

Peace!

From the land of gators, hurricanes and tourist traps,

I should be fine here in Venice:

http://www.wunderground.com/US/FL/Venice.html

It was those early forcast cones on noaa.com that had it coming right at me.

Stay dry, winds should be weaking even more as this comes onshore. News mentioned only 30mph with gusts of 40-45

Schools are open here and all watches have been lifted for Sarasota County.

He's been downgraded to a tropical depression now.

I think all of us here in FLA will be fine with Ernesto, with the possible exception of those east of I-95.

We sure could use some rain, which is kind of drizzling down here now.
