If it looks like your fleet is at risk in the sunshine state we can make room for you in the peach state. We have room at our airport ramp for you to temporarily relocate to GA. [some hangar space possibly too]. [And if it moves north you can then retreat with me further north].

Very generous of you, Chris! Looks like FL and the whole Caribbean basin will be in a lot of hurt shortly. No matter which of the projected tracks the storm will take, people and property will be in peril.

Nice offer (I don't need it, I'm way to far north....).
I did add it to AOPA under "groups helping groups" in an email they sent to AOPA members a couple days ago. Figured it was worth getting soaring into AOPA as well as acknowledge your offer for help with aircraft.
