Comments (24)When evacuations are ordered, you aren't supposed to have to go far. Just get out of the storm surge/flood zone. If you have no other options, go to the local hurricane shelter. It's not pleasant, but you'll be safe and have company. I've had to do that before and it looks like I may again this time, because the roads will be full of crazy panicking people who should have stayed closer to home, so I don't expect to be able to leave the area, even to get to Orlando, which is normally about 2-1/2 hours from here. However horrific wind is, it's mostly water that kills people in hurricanes. I had a lot of friends who spent Andrew hiding under their couches or crouching in their bathtubs while their houses blew away, and except for the trauma of it, they were fine afterwards. The very worst thing is to be stuck in heavy traffic with a storm bearing down on you. Gas is already in very short supply in most of FL and I worry that a lot of folks are going to find themselves stuck up mid-state somewhere running out of gas with no more available. If you want to go, leave as soon as possible, but remember that you aren't going to automatic safety unless you head for the midwest or something. I was considering that after the storm I might go up to a lodge in the mountains in NC where I've stayed before, but you know what? The models are starting to show Irma making it into that area, too. For sure if you've never done this before you should try to find a place where you will be with other people....See MoreHarvey flood person - need kitchen remodel help
Comments (23)I'm very sorry about your Aunt's home! Between Harvey, Irma, and now Maria, so many people have been devastated! It seems like everyone I know has at least one relative or friend affected by one of these hurricanes (including me -- my niece & colleagues by Irma.) Regarding the designs above, I like MamaGoose's the best. It eliminates one corner and gives your Aunt better work space in general where she needs it the most. It also minimizes wasted counterspace that narrows the usable Kitchen floor space (which also makes it a bit tight and, possibly, claustrophobic). There's also more space to move around and allows more than one person in the Kitchen without someone being trapped, which is important in a Kitchen. The portable cart is a nice idea....See MoreKitchen remodel help with weird floor plan
Comments (6)We need pictures , a to scale floor plan with all measurements clearly marked all windows and doorway marked and plumbing unless it can be moved. The height of the walls on all sides . I will sya there is no reason for a 48” range in a regular home unless you cook for 20 3 x day. The venting will cost more than the range and the noise from the venting is horrible....See MoreRemodeling kitchen in new house. Need help with floor plan
Comments (1)I’d try to match the opening to the living room on the dining room side, then make a U-shaped kitchen. Put a small table or two comfy chairs in the bay window space. Definitely no to that first island layout....See Moremusikal
