Default TS Fay & Miami area boaters?

Flights were too full so I could not make it to Miami/Coral Gables to
check on my boats before Fay passed by. My girlfriend went by today,
but the marina won't let anyone go in (Matheson Hammock). I wonder how
fellow mariners did in the Miami area thru this storm.

Not to worry. The regular afternoon thunderstorms are far worse than Fay
was in the Miami area. As usual Fay was over-hyped by the authorities and
weather service. Their primary mission these days seems to be to attempt
to frighten people so they can herd them around like so many frightened
sheep.

How about "Home Despot" and "Blowes"? You don't think they're behind the
hype too?
Think of all of that plywood that they sell.
How about grocery stores? More bottled water was sold since Saturday than
was sold in the last three months.

I could go on, but I think you get my drift...

It is kind-of neat to watch, though.
