I also have a daughter who lives there, and am very worried. Later I may return and add more to this post, but for now had to get it started, cuz help is needed, now!
Please pitch in and say a prayer or chant some mantra for the protection of all the devotees, and the deities, in Alachua Florida. And all of florida.
First, Intent: Any [Vaisnava] prayers or mantra are fine, simply this is one example-
"Dear Lord Narasimhadeva, My obeisances unto You! We are in need of your protection, as Florida devotees and temple are seriously in danger due to this upcoming Hurricane Irma. Please push it far away, please protect the deities there, and the people there. While this is being reported as one of the most powerful hurricanes in decades, we know You are far more powerful than any hurricane. Please show Your mercy and bestow Your power to push far away, this Irma hurricane, and protect all devotees threatened. Falling at Your lotus feet, thank You. I am but your fallen servant, YS, ABC" [Insert your own name, and modify however you wish, or compose your own.]
If anyone wants to add my daughter to the list, I thank you.
After saying a prayer of intent, follow with this chanting [or some mantra to VishnuTattva of your own]. Here are the words to this one:
Ugram Viram Maha Vishnum,
JwalanTum SarvaTo Mukham
Nrsimgham BhishaNam Bhadram
Mrityur Mrityum Namam Yaham
Mantra is not wishful thinking, it actually sends out specific sound vibrations to change/ modify the atmosphere. Coupled with the God aspects too.
So vibrate dear folks, vibrate. :) Do your part, and in that way God notices you are sincere, and does His.
And if a reader out there does not know who Lord Narasimha is, here's a summary:
A demon named HaranyaKashipu asked for a benediction that he would never be killed, and back than they could give benedictions. In this case, was kind of tricked into it. Tho NaradaMuni said he can not grand him immortality, Haranyakashipu said ok, then never let me be killed by man nor by animal, etc etc. Interestingly HaryanKashipu's own song was a great devotee! That made Haranyakashipu mad. He tried and tried to convert him into becoming a demon, but 5 year old Prahlada would makes replies like: "Father, please just try it, just chant Hare Krishna, and your anger will leave you. You will become soooooo happy." This only made stubborn Haranyakashipu more angry, to the point of abusing his son.
He had him thrown off a mountain. He had him put in a pit of poisonous snakes [who never bit him because he was chanting Hare Krishna], even tried to boil him in oil (!),
So when his son, Prahlada, a pure devotee, prayed to Krishna for protection, God incarnated as half lion, half man, as not to break the benediction. [Well, being God He never would have broken it, but for the eyes of humans, He mercifully appeared like this so no one would think He disrespected benedictions]. Also to avoid breaking the benediction that Haranyakashipu never die never inside or outside, he killed this demon on the doorway. Clever. :)
It should also be noted, anyone who is killed by God - goes to God. It should also be noted, this is a pastime, not to be imitated. Briefly, this story leads to another, regarding how Jai and Vijai the gatekeepers above, had to take birth in the material world. They were given choice, to take many birth as devotee, or take few births as demon. It was their choice, and they both wanted to get back soon, so they picked demon. In Krishna's rasa of course so that is special. Ok, phew, done. :)

With that explained, phew ha, I share with you the following video that protects the devotees and destroys demons. Right now this hurricane feels like a demon, killing people. Please chant to shift it's course, as well as to have all devotees and pious folk protected!
