“I’m in the orange [Map in post#51]. Going to try and ride it out. “
I hope you maintain power and internet connection ... your reports to us from there could be really great.
I definitely would be out of there if I were green or lower - after that you really have to examine the terrain to guess what the waves are going to do... can they reach you, etc. Also, how are hurricane force winds going to affect you in that area. Trees, construction, projectiles, etc.
We have a very well built home, 5.5 years old. We are the middle of the block, the highest spot around, everything drains to the north and south from the front of our house. Our trees are fairly young. The area is all new construction so there aren’t any 100 year old oaks close by. We have a “big truck” to get out in with both tanks full of diesel, if necessary. Power is our concern.
I’m going to get out there and pick up all my landscaping ornaments here shortly. Everything else is secured and on the west side of the house. There is a grocery store close that is open today so if I think of anything else, I can run over there. Ice has been bagged and in the freezer and I’ll fill the water jugs shortly.
