I have read the posts of people here saying they were not told to evacuate the area, loved ones were not told to evacuate. The storm was supposed to go 150 miles north.

The evac orders are plain as day. Everyone in mobile homes and RVs was told to leave 24 hours before hand.

The ENTIRE population of Port Charlotte wasn't ordered to evac; most of the area was "strongly urged" to evacuate closer to the storm.

However, I suspect the overwhelming majority of deaths will be from mobile homes.

Find that information. I am looking for it everywhere. I will show you the messages from yesterday that people were not given evacuation orders until just before this thing hit.

You need to lighten up; you've been pontificating all night long; you don't have all the answers.
