45 and 10 are already starting to clear.

The big difference between this and the SuperDome is that there is STILL more than 30 hours before this thing is going to hit.

We'll get them out.

Good.

I watch them, and I feel trapped!...and I'm not even claustrophobic

It kinda depends on your definition of "hit". By late afternoon local time, conditions will be deteriorating rapidly even though the eye might not make landfall for another eight hours.

I'm going to finish up the last minute things this evening and tomorrow morning with a goal of being completely finished by noon. I have no idea how long power will be out, or even whether it will out for me at all. But a load of laundry, load of dishes, final inspections of tied down items outside, etc., all needs to be complete well before the hurricane officially makes landfall.
