The media is so over the top on this, hyping and fear monkeying as usual. Is there any storm that is not the biggest ever?
Oh, and you might ask the residents of Rockport, TX whether the forecast was hype. Or the residents of Puerto Rico.

What hurricane affected you?
I witnessed the aftermath of a Category 1 storm. It was not pretty to see homes in splinters, homes washed away, homes flooded that resulted in mold and all contents destroyed.
When Hurricane Sandy hit the Jersey Shore, occupants of areas had to evacuate on October 27-28th. It hit on October 29th. Gas, electric, and water lines were destroyed in the towns. Roads were destroyed. Residents were not permitted to return to their homes for three months...until the end of January. They had to comply because the bridge leading to their homes was closed.
It was during the school year. Makeshift schools were created. People lived in shelters for three months. Clothes and food had to be donated.....
Tell us about your experience during a hurricane.
2 mph shy of being a CAT 5...
This one I believe is the biggest on record to hit the Florida Panhandle.
