Guanabanas Restaurant & bar in Jupiter, Florida

Guanabanas Restaurant & bar in Jupiter, Florida

ABOUT GUANABANAS
Opened by Jupiter surfers as a sandwich shop in 2004, Guanabanas has grown to become an institution in northern Palm Beach County for three reasons: The lush, tropical setting; great cuisine and cocktails (long gone are the sandwich shop days!); and live music from both national acts and the hottest names in South Florida. Guanabanas is a 100 percent open-air outdoor dining restaurant and bar with woven tiki huts and banyan trees towering over head, and hand-chiseled coquina stone pathways underfoot. The team maintains a laid-back, island atmosphere where everyone is welcome.

Guanabanas is dedicated to providing each guest with a truly unique outdoor dining experience. We have designed our company and our restaurant in an unorthodox way to help achieve the high standards we have set for ourselves in the disciplines of service, food, atmosphere/ambiance, waterfront location, landscape design, outdoor temperature control and the overall sensory experience. We feel it is necessary to provide a true “Florida” experience with our creative outdoor restaurant design which utilizes quality exotic/local plants and trees, Key West/Old Florida styled structures, hand-built cheeky huts from the native indian tribes of Florida, fresh Florida seafood and a premium bar with live music.

Hurricane IRMA Update, Checklist & Important Information

Hurricane IRMA Update, Checklist & Important Information

We just got off a conference call with FEMA, NOAA, the National Weather Service and Florida Emergency Management about Hurricane Irma.

Their message was unmistakable: take the threat seriously and prepare accordingly.

Although we cannot control the severity of Irma, we can act ahead of time to safeguard our families, homes and businesses. Governor Rick Scott has already declared a state of emergency as wind gusts are expected to exceed 200 miles per hour. All tolls on Florida highways have been suspended and prescription drug refills covered by health insurance are available early.

A number of simple steps can make a big difference in surviving a natural disaster.

FEMA recommends that you identify your local hurricane evacuation route, make a family emergency communication plan, purchase a portable generator, secure loose rain gutters and downspouts, reinforce roofs, windows and doors and remove any damaged trees and limbs before rainfall. There is absolutely no downside in preparing for the worst.

Visit http://www.floridadisaster.org/info/ to get up-to-date emergency information and make sure you follow the directions of local emergency management officials.

If you are thinking of leaving, please check out https://fl511.com/ for routes, cameras, and accidents.

Important website www.readypbc.org

Price gouging hotline is now operational. 1-866-9 no scam

Many stores including Publix, gas stations, and Home Depot have backup generators. We fully expect them to up and running getting new supplies.

Bottom line – Stay calm.

New advisory after Harvey is one week worth of items for your entire family as well as animals, not three days like in the past. It would also be the time to decide if you are staying or leaving. We are in the cone now up to about Orlando. According to the news tonight, the only place not having to deal with the storm much will be the panhandle west, but that is not a given either. Storms don’t read or follow maps. According to again to the news, we might be in the storm by mid day Sunday into Sunday night.

Not time to put up shutters, yet. Get food, water, meds, gas, know where your important documents are, battery operated radio, charge up/check your generators, check your flashlights/battery supply, animal supplies, and maybe a tarp if you need one after the storm and any other items that are important to your household. Also, you will need gloves and cleaning supplies (shovels, rakes,etc..) after the storm.

For those riding the storm out.

Hurricane Checklist
1. Charge any device that provides light. Laptops, tablets, cameras, video cameras, and old phones. Old cell phones can still use for dialing 911. Charge external battery back ups.

2. Wash all trash cans, big and small, and fill with water for flushing toilets. Line outdoor trash cans with trash bags, fill with water and store in the garage. Add bleach to sterilize.

3. Fill every tub and sink with water. Cover sinks with Saran Wrap to keep it from collecting dust. Fill washing machine and leave the lid up to store water.

4. Fill old empty water bottles and other containers with water and keep near sinks for washing hands.

5. Fill every Tupperware with water and store in the freezer. These will help keep food cold longer and serve as a backup water supply.

6. Fill drinking cups with water and cover with Saran Wrap. Store as many as possible in the fridge. The rest you can store on the counter and use first before any water bottles are opened. Ice is impossible to find after the storm.

7. Reserve fridge space for storing tap water and keep the sealed water bottles on the counter.

8. Cook any meats in advance and other perishable foods. You can freeze cooked food. Hard boil eggs for snacks for first day without power.

9. Be well hydrated before the storm hits and avoid salty foods that make you dehydrated.

10. Wash all dirty clothes and bed sheets. Anything dirty will smell without the A/C, you may need the items, and with no A/C, you’ll be sweating a lot. You’re going to want clean sheets.

11. Toss out any expiring food, clean cat litter boxes, empty all trash cans in the house, including bathrooms. Remove anything that will cause an odor when the A/C is off. If you don’t have a trash day pickup before the storm, find a dumpster.

12. Bring in any yard decor, secure anything that will fly around, secure gates, bring in hoses, potted plants, etc. Bring in patio furniture and grills.

13. Clean your environment, so you have clear, easy escape routes. Even if that means temporarily moving furniture to one area.

14. Scrub all bathrooms, so you are starting with a clean odor free environment. Store water filled trash cans next to each toilet for flushing.

15. Place everything you own that is important and necessary in a backpack or small file box that is easy to grab. Include your wallet with ID, phone, hand sanitizer, snacks, etc. Get plastic sleeves for important documents.

16. Make sure you have cash on hand.

17. Stock up on pet food and fill up bowls of water for pets.

18. Refill any medications. Most insurance companies allow for two emergency refills per year.

19. Fill your propane tanks. You can heat soup cans, boil water, make coffee, and other stuff besides just grilling meat. Get an extra, if possible.

20. Drop your A/C in advance and lower temperatures in your fridges.

21. Gather all candles, flashlights, lighters, matches, batteries, and other items and keep them accessible.

22. Clean all counters in advance. Start with a clean surface. Buy Clorox Wipes for cleaning when there is no power. Mop your floors and vacuum. If power is out for ten days, you’ll have to live in the mess you started with.

23. Pick your emergency safe place such as a closet under the stairs. Store the items you’ll need in that location for the brunt of the storm. Make a hand fan for when the power is out.

24. Shower just before the storm is scheduled to hit.

25. Keep baby wipes next to each toilet. Don’t flush them. It’s not the time to risk clogging your toilet!

26. Run your dishwasher, don’t risk having dirty, smelly dishes and you need every container for water! Remember you’ll need clean water for brushing your teeth, washing, and cleaning your hands.

27. Put a small suitcase in your car in case you decide to evacuate. Also, put at least one jug of water in your car. It will still be there if you don’t evacuate! You don’t need to store all water in the house. Remember to pack for pets as well.

28. Check on all family members, set up emergency back up plans, and check on elderly neighbors.

29. Remember, pets are family too. Take them with you!

30. Before the storm, unplug all electronics. There will be power surges during and after the storm.

31. Gas up your car and have a spare gas container for your generator or your car when you run out.

If you can, take a video of your house and contents….walk room to room–open cabinets/drawers and closets. This will help if you need to make a claim later. It will show proof of items and help you list all the items (help your memory, so you don’t forget anything)…I highly recommend!!!

I also heard you should freeze a cup of water, place a coin on top after it is frozen…keep this in your freezer to help you gauge the temperature if the power goes out. If the coin stays on top, the food is staying frozen. If the coin falls into the water, the freezer thawed out and most food will likely need to be thrown away. This is super helpful if you have to leave and come back, as it may appear everything is still frozen, but if the coin is in the cup–you will know!!

Finally, anything that you want to try and preserve, but you can’t take with you—place it in a plastic bin and put in your dishwasher, lock the door—this should make it water tight in case of any water intrusion into your home. But of course, take all the important/irreplaceable items you can!!

Landlines worked during the 04/05 hurricane season; cordless did not work because of no electricity for three weeks. If you have a corded phone, find it and be prepared to plug it into the wall to use if your cell goes out. Keep your cell charged as much as you can around this weekend.

Common sense tells us that after the storm has passed, don’t call FPL to report an outage. They will know that. However, call if all your neighbors have power and you don’t.

If we get a direct hit, pass up the temptation to go outside and assess the damage. Believe me; there will be more in the back half of the storm. Stay safe in your house. With standing water after the storm, don’t go walking in it, if possible. There could be a live electric wire in that water, snakes, red ants and more to name a few.
Your safety, your families safety, and your animals safety if first, but if you are ok, check on your neighbors to make sure they are ok as well. This area pitches in to help each other, and we are counting on everyone to help each other.

If you stay calm, hopefully, your animals will stay calm. They will sense the storm before you do. Make sure all your animals have tags with name/phone numbers.

For the larger animals, write your name and number right on them with a grease pen or other pens that are permanent, not wash off in the rain if they get out. I am sure there are plenty of experts out here on animals. Check with your vet if you need to sedate your dog or cat for the storm.

The important take away is to be prepared and stay safe!

Please be safe,

South Florida Review

Hurricane Harvey: Could it happen in Palm Beach County?

Hurricane Harvey: Could it happen in Palm Beach County?

(By Kimberly Miller – Palm Beach Post Staff Writer) South Florida’s water managers watched the rain pile up in southeast Texas with the same horror as the rest of the nation, but with a heightened anxiety that comes in knowing the limitations of the state’s own flood control system.

Despite decades of environmental manipulation to corral, channel and pump water away from developed areas, if 30-plus inches of rain fell steadily over several thousand square miles of South Florida, it would be under water — several feet under water.

“You get three feet of rain in that magnitude over that amount of area, you are going to have three feet of water everywhere,” said Tommy Strowd, director of operations for the Lake Worth Drainage District. “Houston is hard to look at. It’s the kind of thing that keeps you up at night.”

Areas of southeast Texas received a record 52 inches of rain over a roughly 72-hour span during Hurricane Harvey’s extended stall over the state.

If South Florida experienced something similar, at best, water would invade homes and turn roads into canals.

In a worst-case scenario, the deluge would fall into Lake Okeechobee, or just north of it.

John Campbell, a spokesman for the Army Corps of Engineers, which manages Lake Okeechobee, discussed Harvey-like scenarios with an engineer last week. He said 20 inches of rain could increase lake levels seven to eight feet.

“It would likely exceed the design capacity of the dike,” Campbell said. “We’ve seen performance issues at 17 feet (above sea level).”

Lake Okeechobee is surrounded by the vulnerable Herbert Hoover Dike, which protects Glades-area communities from flooding. On Thursday, the lake was at 13.53 feet above sea level, meaning 20 inches of rain could quickly swell it to 21 feet. The Corps likes to keep the lake between 12.5 feet and 15.5 feet above sea level. The highest the lake has been was 18.7 feet in 1947.

“I don’t know that any flood-control structure is designed to handle every imaginable flood,” Campbell said.

We have it better than Houston

“It would likely exceed the design capacity of the dike,” Campbell said. “We’ve seen performance issues at 17 feet (above sea level).”

Lake Okeechobee is surrounded by the vulnerable Herbert Hoover Dike, which protects Glades-area communities from flooding. On Thursday, the lake was at 13.53 feet above sea level, meaning 20 inches of rain could quickly swell it to 21 feet. The Corps likes to keep the lake between 12.5 feet and 15.5 feet above sea level. The highest the lake has been was 18.7 feet in 1947.

“I don’t know that any flood-control structure is designed to handle every imaginable flood,” Campbell said.

We have it better than Houston

Another advantage in South Florida is the network of canals and pumping systems that can be put into overdrive before and during a storm to mechanically move water from inland areas to the open ocean — a factor that would further reduce the amount of time flood waters would stick around.

Houston’s drainage is by gravity through a set of slow-moving bayous that have been enlarged into flood-control ditches, said Texas climatologist John Nielsen-Gammon. Once the bayous flood, water moves outward onto freeways, then residential streets and eventually into homes.

Both South Florida and Houston can have problems with too much concrete and not enough green space to soak up rainfall. Runoff from streets and parking lots and driveways can quickly fill up drainage ponds or run into lower lying areas.

While building codes in Palm Beach County require newer developments to account for this runoff by building retention ponds to collect the water, older communities don’t have that or were built at lower elevations.

South Florida Water Management District permitting requires new developments to build floors in homes at or above a level to stay dry during a 100-year, three-day rain event, said district spokesman Randy Smith.

Smith said last week he didn’t want to speculate on what would happen if a Harvey-style rainfall hit South Florida.

“I don’t want it to look like we’re trying to do fear-mongering,” Smith said. “But logically, if you look at 40 to 45 inches in a short amount of time, it would be widespread flooding.”

Strowd, of the Lake Worth Drainage District, said when nearly two feet of rain fell in January 2014 over a 24-hour period, flooding was exacerbated in 70’s-era neighborhoods surrounded by newer communities “designed to move more water.”

In the 40-year-old Kings Point subdivision west of Delray Beach, a 90-year-old man walked through waist-deep flood waters into a canal and drowned during the 2014 soaking.

“Newer developments learn from the lessons of the past so they build higher and have more infrastructure,” Strowd said. “That can leave older developments at higher risks.”

In August 2012, Tropical Storm Isaac sputtered by South Florida with little wind damage, but dumped more than a foot of rain when a training band of moisture stalled over the county. Some residents in western Palm Beach County were stranded for five days in floodwaters that lapped at their front doors. Firefighters drove trucks through four feet of water to help get people to doctor’s appointments or to buy supplies. Some schools were closed for a week.

But Isaac was considered a success story because few, if any, homes had water push over their thresholds.

“The drainage system worked like it was supposed to,” Strowd said.

When would flooding start?

How much rain can fall before flooding starts depends on many factors. Has it been dry in the weeks preceding a deluge? Is it a neighborhood or an entire county getting the rain? Is it inland or near the Intracoastal?

Most experts said, in general, 20 inches is about what South Florida can manage before widespread flooding occurs.

But the precedent for rainfall in Florida is 45.20 carried by a storm similar in strength and saturation as Harvey.

In September 1950, Hurricane Easy — born when storms were named phonetically — lingered off Florida’s west coast north of Tampa for two days with 125-mph winds. It did two loop-de-loops on its path, and made two landfalls in Florida, before taking an unusual path to the northwest as the larger and stronger Hurricane Dog spun east of Florida.

Over 24 hours, Easy dropped 38.7 inches on Levy County’s Yankeetown, with a 72-hour total of 45.2 inches.

Meteorologists used Easy as a benchmark to determine how much rain the atmosphere could muster in Florida and coastal areas through Texas in the heaviest storm possible. They came up with 55.7 inches.

“Fortunately, we haven’t had a rainfall event the size of Easy until a few days ago,” said Louisiana State Climatologist Barry Keim, referring to Harvey. “Basically, 67 years ago we had a storm like Harvey in Yankeetown. Where the next one hits, we don’t know.”
