They should be ok......though their county beach area is under mandatory evacuation.....he's telling me this is a new Mayor doing what a new Mayor does in his county.....same for the Gov. Scott....none are taking any chances since they're new on the stage of this potential storm. They're closer to the river than they are the ocean.

I hope your family is OK. The storm surge will push the river up too. I hope they are high enough.

We had a house on Galveston Bay. The houses were all built up on stilts. The old ones were 12 feet, the newer homes were 16 feet up.

We’re in Fort Lauderdale on a canal off the Intracoastal. We came down for a few days as our boat was brought down from MA. My husband has been a wreck as keeping the boat in our canal seemed like a recipe for disaster. Fortunately, we were able to get a slip well inland on the New a River. Praying all will be safe.
