No offense to the pros, and I'm sure they'll agree, but I think we make it clear enough to all members. If not, here it is again -- Only follow NHC, NWS, and your local goverment for official information and decisions for your area.
Don't bash the pro mets. Use your head, listen to reason, stay prepared, and leave when told to do so (or earlier). And please read the rules and then think twice before you post.
Please let this be the last of this long slew of reminders we mods are having to post again and again and again.
