hope the storm steers clear of the Ft. Lauderdale area. I am sitting here in St.Pete and am warily watching this as well.I do fear that this is either an Andrew or a Charlie. remember that Andrew mostly dissipated of one evening only to roar back to life the very next day. It destroyed Homestead AFB, Miami and southern FL. next it trashed New Orleans and the gulf coast.
I do not think this will be a major event.
