Several. Don't use the round, bowl-shaped one for drinking water.

Mark, don't think were going to have that much to worry about for us here in central Carolina. Lots of rain and a power outage here and there, maybe. Hopefully not the ghost of Hugo arriving as its daughter Irma this time. At least you shouldn't have to flush to get a drink of water out of the Pod! LOL

Some of the models don't look too good for Cedar Key at the moment, although I don't think anyone has a real handle on Irma's path.

The suggestions to hitch up the 'Pod and head north are well intentioned, I'm sure, but the reality is severe congestion on all the major evac routes, so unless you have a good cross country sense, you'll most likely join the masses idling on the interstate until their gas runs out.  And there is no gas.

Our bug out plans also include our R-Pod, but parked snugly inside a steel building designed to 160 mph wind loads.  Reachable in about 10 minutes.  A change of clothes, food for us and the spaniels, water and important financial papers and we're out of harm's way...

Cedar Key looks to be close to the predicted landfall of this nasty storm.  Praying that lots of its energy is worked off by then.

Goodbye, Irma-

And good riddance!  We dodged a bullet.  Never left home and never lost power.  Luckier than most, for all of whom I have great sympathy and best wishes.

Glad for you!  I thought a lot about you as the storm progressed.

Lucky you! So happy to learn you did dodge this storm and came out okay. I hope the same for other folks on this forum that are in the path of this monster of a storm.

Hope to head out in a few days for the coast now that Irma has luckily past us by.
