TS Dolly is heading through the channel and onwards to the GOM. We’re stocked on Rum (first thing I checked!), water for showering, drinking and are now putting everything away that is outside. Since more than 1/2 our house is outside it is a project.
More later. Just a tropical storm, so no huge biggie, but it is a bit of a hassle.
9pm - according to our governor, Alerta Rojo will begin at 10:30pm, impact should be along the coast between Xel-Ha and Cozumel. Cozumel airport is still open and will remain open. Ports are closed.
10:45 - still pretty much a non-event. Rain intermittant but no gusts like earlier this afternoon. Checked out Cozumel’s lights just a bit ago. Rain isn’t bad and so far this is not even as bad as simple storms we get here.

Stay dry and enjoy the rum.
Hope you guys make out alright, don’t think this is “da big one” or anything, but even little storms can be tricky.

Everything should be ok Kathy, today we experienced all the Cozumel ferrys pulling into Puerto Aventuras, it made me think of you and your trailer, all experts!!!
PS:It seems to have slowed down I should expect we will have more wind around 2am..I hope it wil not have a chance to strengthen…

What a dud Dolly was! Next to watch is that tropical wave coming, that one, woah, could be interesting.
Did you figure out who Akumalturtle is

Never run out of rum! ;*)
I am glad it was a non-event for you guys. I am hoping it will be for us as well. Even if it is a non-event for us too, we plan on having a hurricane party complete with frozen beverages.
