If your near the line I would start preps. At a minimum get boards for your windows. At worst you can use them again.

Book a hotel 100mi inland now. Pick a good one with 24 hours notice. Cancel if the storm goes out to open sea.

My point being......

I have worked Hurricanes of Intensity and the coast is very dangerous. Book the rooms. You can always cancel.

Some models show it's potential to go up the East Coast....

They're saying if in Florida to begin preparations...though shouldn't hit there, if it's going to, till Tues. or Wed. Better safe than sorry I say.

But then Here's the latest.....

All good advice. I was considering a Lowe's run tomorrow for plywood (for the windows). The racks will be empty as soon as it looks like it's heading this way. I've plenty of room to store it and if I end up not needing it there's always a hundred uses for plywood. The hotel is a good idea too. I could watch my security cams remotely on my phone at a safe distance - at least until the power and Internet goes out.
