Welcome to Wednesday's Hurricane Frances news-twist !
It looks like a Melbourne Landfall after all, once again (to Section9's worst fears) churning it's way North along the Coast Highway ...

I'm living in NC now and we have had our fair share of hurricanes up here in the past nine years that I've been here. I also lived in S FL during Andrew and believe me, hurricanes are nothing to take lightly.
My parents are just west of Hodges so they are not in an evacuation zone and they plan on staying put.
Whatever you decide to do Godspeed to you and know that you are in my prayers re: your liver transplant.

Sorry, I went to bed early last night.

Hard not to notice. When Jennifer Lopez is standing by Florida and you can't see Alabama, she'll be due to deliver.
But they do have some pulchritudinous meteorologists, I have to say. Didn't one of them have a fan club?
All I want to know is can you still go to the Capri and get a good pizza with some wine? Seriously we will pray for all of you and hope that you stay safe during the coming weekend!!!
Yea, the Capri is still here, still at the same place.
You'll have to let me know when you come back from your visit just how much you didn't recognize Homestead!!!!
Blessings to you.
Just thought I would share this other link on FR for further info or discussion.

Thanks for the ping. :)
Hi there. We decided to go. The condo managers said they wanted the power cut anyway and I didn't want to take a chance on getting stuck. We're in Georgia now but will go back this week.
We made it out on Thurs. Now we are heading back to Ponte Vedra Beach tomorrow morning, Monday. I've called down there I don't think anything is closed such as roads or bridges.
Thanks so much!! I've got to get back for treatment so we're leaving tomorrow to go back.
I hope Floridians make it through this ok. My brother is currently in the middle of a typhoon in Okinawa where he is stationed.
What's up with the looters and "prowlers?" These people should have enhancements put on their prison sentences, but unfortunatly we let these people go.
And why can't more of our hurricane names reflect the diversity in this country? How about hurricane Javier?
We left Fri evening and just got home. We are blessed to have power and broadband working. Still many without power here now. I can't believe we drove home through a tropical storm! That was a mess! I can't believe how many dingbats were driving with their emergency flashers on. You instinctively slowed down thinking there was an accident ahead and it was just someone thinking you wouldn't see them if they didn't have their flashers on. There were a lot of trees that fell along I-10 and fell just to the edge of the road. If any trees along the edge of the road had fallen it would have been impassable.
Glad to be home and everyone and everything safe and sound.God bless!
