Appears to all be over. Phew.
Laurel, watch out, it's coming across. Looks very bad in Naples.

Sounds very scary - I'm glad it's over now!

Laurel, I don't think you can turn off marine alerts. Yes, they.are annoying. We keep it upstairs in our center, it is loud enough that my husband can hear it (I can't, hard of hearing), but the cell phone warnings are just as effective as the weather.radio.
Yep, it is my free weather radio. Nice of them to send them out.

Thanks, I'm gonna have to figure out how to do the cell phone ones. Does your cell phone do marine alerts?

Well I'm going out to dinner with two girlfriends tonight (also providers) so I guess we'll try to have a lot of fun tonight as tomorrow we'll be stuck in with the kiddies again.

You don't get cell alerts automatically? They ONLY come for severe weather alerts in your immediate area. And Amber Alerts. I didn't do or sign up for anything, they just come.
ETA: No marine alerts! Thank goodness. Wish they would do marine alerts differently.

We had bad weather here and sirens of COURSE during nap time... Very nice of Mother Nature.

Kids here really are so used to it they don't get scared anymore...thank goodness. And we do a lot of drills too. Have our hurricane and tornado plan etc.

The sirens are really really loud here too.

Husband is still offshore and since I haven't gotten a phone call I guess he's safe... He's out in the Gulf of Mexico on a rig.

Stay safe everyone in Florida.

Oh duh, I forgot. :: I've had an alert on my land line but don't always have my cell on so not sure if they are sent by cell or not.

I like our earthquakes much better than your tornados. No warning, just hit and it's over (For the most part).

Stay safe.
