The radio said today that one reason the governor of GA had declared a state of emergency is because after he does that, it's illegal for vendors to raise the prices on essentials.

That said, I think NE Fla and GA are going to dodge this particular bullet, except for perhaps the tornadoes in the outer bands. My sister says the JAX tv & radio stations are still hyping it, and we're still putting stuff away around here, but it looks as if the major part will go out to sea.

That's good think on their part. IIRC didn't Jeb declare a state of emergency early on, too? Glad these guys are making it difficult for vendors to take advantage of people during a crisis.
