Can you even begin to comprehend the immensity of what is probably going to transpire over the next 72 hours? The first Cat 5 landfall in the US since Andrew. But instead of cutting East to West across the very southern part of Florida with a fairly compact hurricane, we are looking at a much wider hurricane moving South to North across the entire Florida peninsula. It doesn’t matter if the track is up the gut or a bit to the east or west. It is still a catastrophic event if it goes down anywhere remotely close to the forecast. So please, take your ignorant crapola bleatings elsewhere.
first off...Andrew was never a Cat 5 storm....they dreamt that up 12 years after the fact...this is Hurricane Charley, thats all...dont fall for the media hysteria. West Palm is almost out of the cone now...it was ground zero 2 days ago...
Did you see that 895mb right as it hits the main land.
We don’t need this storm right now. And I have relatives just NW of Tampa. They have a doublewide, and could not afford this kind of insurance. At least they are not going to ride it out there.
