Bottling during a hurricane in Tampa Bay?
 
I just kind of feel bored just now. There is nothing on TV & radio but
hurricane people talking about Charley. Sun is out wind is light and I
kind of feel to do some bottling.

I have 2 10g barrels ready to go. Anything pressure wise to pull a
negative against this? I should be done in an hour or two.

Just found out my brother is riding out Charley - he's in Clearwater. Are
you supposed to evacuate? Isn't the air pressure of the eye of the
hurricane very low the bigger the storm? Since this is a Category 4 storm,
wouldn't you get some problems with the changing air pressure? Maybe not?
I hope someone else has some answers for you. Good-luck and cheers!

Nothing but possitive but you might hold off a bit. If you botte as the eye
passes over, the pressure will be about as low as you ever see it so when
you ram your corks home, there will be less air being compressed in the
bottle. A real plus! ;o)

I am kidding you know. What I say is true but I dought if it will make a
difference.

Stay safe and don't drink too much of that wine as tempting as it may be.
You need your wits about you in a huricane.
