I just wanted to chime in and thank everyone for the updates. We left Naples on Thursday and are sitting in a hotel in Alabama, along with many other residents from our area and appreciate all of the information. While we are all fearful that our homes will be devastated, at least getting the information helps us process what is going on as well as helping us to decide what we will need to do after the storm hits.
Cam - why pissed off people? This looks to make landfall as Cat 4, still within the cone of uncertainty since five days ago. If anything, people should be thankful for your posts!
Thinking about the bust areas. What's a strong breeze for Miami and 4-6 inches of rain? Just saying. There's going to be areas where after this is said and done that wasn't affected as bad. and people will be pissed they dealt with evacuation, hotels, traffic, travelling, hype, and fear, ect. I think Florida can handle .... what.... 90mph GUSTS for 12hrs? 60mph sustained? I don't know. Talking about the East side now.
BTW - I'm seeing 40-65mph gusts already across South Florida.. Posting map now,
Psychoma and Cambium, you both have been absolutely wonderful in keeping us all in the loop with the updates. Other folks in this thread as well. People are asking the right questions and we're thinking about all the right things.
Thank you guys, I don't want you folks to feel like this is a thank-less job. I'm sure I can speak for many here that your information has been invaluable. Thank you again guys.
Absolutely - anyone willing to share their knowledge is appreciated.

OK that's twice now and nobody took the bait.
How about waiting until the hurricane actually happens?
Not surprised someone from CT considers it "a bust" when people's lives are NOT destroyed by a hurricane.
