SPECIAL TROPICAL DISTURBANCE STATEMENT
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
500 PM EST SUN DEC 9 2007

AN AREA OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAS BECOME BETTER ORGANIZED
TODAY ABOUT 550 MILES EAST-NORTHEAST OF PUERTO RICO...IN
ASSOCIATION WITH A SHARP SURFACE TROUGH AND A LARGE UPPER-LEVEL
LOW.  THE SYSTEM IS ALREADY PRODUCING GALE FORCE WINDS...MAINLY TO
THE NORTH AND NORTHEAST OF THE MAIN AREA OF THUNDERSTORMS.  THE
SURFACE TROUGH HAS BEEN MOVING WESTWARD AT ABOUT 15 TO 20 MPH...AND
THIS GENERAL MOTION IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE OVER THE NEXT DAY OR
TWO.  WATER TEMPERATURES ARE STILL WARM ENOUGH IN THIS AREA TO
SUPPORT TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION...AND UPPER-LEVEL WINDS ARE NOT
ESPECIALLY PROHIBITIVE FOR DEVELOPMENT.  THIS SYSTEM HAS THE
POTENTIAL TO BECOME A TROPICAL OR SUBTROPICAL STORM DURING THE NEXT
24 HOURS...AND INTERESTS IN THE NORTHERN LEEWARD ISLANDS...THE
VIRGIN ISLANDS...PUERTO RICO...HISPANIOLA...AND THE EASTERN BAHAMAS
SHOULD MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS SYSTEM.

FURTHER SPECIAL TROPICAL DISTURBANCE STATEMENTS WILL BE ISSUED AS
NECESSARY.  FOR INFORMATION SPECIFIC TO YOUR AREA...CONSULT

To: familyprep at yahoogroups.com


Fuel storage is a very touchy issue...

lots of cities and counties have rules and such limiting how much you
can store...

here is my strategy.

ALL my gennies run on propane and I have two 500 gallon tanks for
them. the good news on propane is that it NEVER gets old... so as
long as the tank doesn't rust through, then I have stored fuel.

As far as my gasoline and diesel storage, I use several types of cans.

I have a 50 gallon toolbox/tank with a gas pump on it that I keep
full of diesel for my truck.

For my wifes car and cahinsaws I use 15 gallon containers I bought
for storage, as about 15 gallons is all I can pickup and move around.

I also have LOTS of metal boat gas tanks I buy off of craigslist.

why boat gas cans? one they are DOT certified. TWO they don;t rot
like plastic. THREE the come with a nice hose and pump to get the
gasoline flowing. you can usually find USED ones on craigslist for 10
to 20 bucks...

I have some that my grandfather bought in the 50's and they still
work fine.

I try and buy my fuel right after the add the winter mix and right
before they switch for the summer blends, as the winter mix has a bit
more naptha for cold starting. I use PRI-G to keep the fuel fresh,
and rotate all fuel twice a year. It's pretty easy.

When I decide to burn some of my gasoline in preparation for new, I
put about 5 gallons at a time in my 15 gallon tank. That way if I got
a bit of water, particulates or bad fuel it will not over whelm the
fuel in my truck.

I keep it all about 40 feet from the house behind a tool shed out of
the sun. SUNLIGHT is the killer here.. keep your fuel int he shade as
it lasts longer.

For diesel I rotate ONCE a year when they change to the winter blend
as it has a higher CETANE rating.. I also use PRI-D to keep that
fresh and filter ALL FUEL coming out of storage.

I also have PLENTY of chainsaw oil and bar oil stored along with
mixed fuel. I burn 50 to 1 on my chainsaw and my outboards, so it is
very easy to use outboard mixed gas in the chainsaw.

My Avon RIB SAR boat, has a 40 gallon tank in it permenent, so I keep
that FULL as that will run my chainsaw a very long time.

I'll see if I can take a few digital shots of some of my stuff.

BTW I live on an acre, so have a little more room than the average
city lot...

DO NOT EVER store fuel in your garage or house. Not worth the risk.
