85 is no big deal - even the mobile homes can withstand that no problem. I'm sure she is fine.

I am in Orlando and, thankfully, this storm appears to be way overhyped. No where close to the damage of other 'major' hurricanes.b

Orlando?

But, it's not over you yet.

Don't relax untilit's past your area!

I don't think the people in Ft. Myers area would agree with you about its being overhyped.

Not correct at all. Inland communities do NOT normally receive coastal breezes. The trees are not prepared to withstand high winds, including Cat 1 hurricane force. Inland wind damage is enormous. Can't wait to hear what location you are playing armchair quarterback. Your profile doesn't tell us.
