Tonight's sunset (looking to the west), just before the #SpaceX launch (about to look to the northeast).
This just showed up on my screen when I logged into Zombie Twitter.

#News13 meteorologist showing the Cocoa Beach tornado warning as it began. Compare the time stamp to the alert that showed up on my smartphone around the same time.

Frame capture from #News13 yesterday evening reporting on the Cocoa Beach tornado. Had it continued, it would have gone right over our house in north Merritt Island. As it was, we still had a strong cell pass through, just no damage for us.
Good morning from the #SpaceCoast of #Florida.
We're still here. Other than the Cocoa Beach tornado, I haven't heard of any significant damage in our area. The eyewall just passed through here so we're experiencing peak gusts.

The Weather.com ten-day forecast for north Merritt Island ... The wind forecast took a big leap overnight, now looking at 41 MPH sustained winds on Thursday.

I found this on the 45th weather squadron's website. It suggests we'll have 34 knot (40 mph) winds but not much more.
We're going to have lots of rain, but 40 mph winds is quite survivable.

This has me feeling a bit better about our chances here in Brevard County. The color code suggests a 50%-60% chance of 40+ MPH sustained winds.
The ten-day forecast has 28 MPH sustained winds for us on Wednesday-Thursday.
Combine the two, and it suggests we should have winds that are annoying but not threatening.
But we'll see how the day goes.
Not so good for the Gulf side.
