Not sure what a no-evac zone is.

Usually the beachside folk have to evacuate...

..but the mainliners don't, or it's optional.

We're mainliners.

But if it's a direct hit at a Cat.4, we would leave.

It means that there is no mandatory evacuation -- even for a CAT 5.

Not that I'd want to be here during a CAT 5, but after Charley did his quick shift in direction, it's hard to know what to do. We almost left Pinellas for Orlando during Charley-- which would have been a huge mistake.
