It seems most of western USAnia is either on fire or coughing its head off right now. Nice Lady in the car park says the interstate through the Columbia River gorge had to be closed this afternoon and two towns evacuated.Guess where I'm heading tomorrow
Dear fboab-at-work,The intended vessel details are as below:ETS: 09/17ETA: 10/03However, we have Hurricane Irma headed straight towards us. If it does not weaken and/or change paths, I see shipping being delayed for quite some time.
Fingers Crossed she's not as devastating as Harvey
Floridians don't usually get scared of Hurricanes. This one is terrifying.

Our air is officially described as "Unhealthy to Very Unhealthy" right now due to the Columbia Gorge fires, high temperatures and extremely dry conditions in general.
Maybe it's karma for the Americans electing trump
All I can say is I'm glad my son got back from Cuba in July and isn't there now. Not sure if Cuba is directly in Irma's path, but I doubt it will escape unharmed.
I combined the images of Hurricane Andrew (1992) & Hurricane Irma (today) at scale in a gif. Irma is a damn leviathan.
It doesn’t matter where you start. Just start.
