That may have been Cleo back in the early 60's. We were just kids then, but were vacationing in the Bahamas with our parents. We fled the storm to a motel in Lauderdale, the storm made an unexpected left turn, followed us right into south Florida, arriving just hours after we did, missing entirely the island we fled.
The forecasting is a little better now than then, luckily.
