Max was just back on with Norcorss and he said that they have seen the westward wobble but don't make too much of it. They still think their track is good. He then went on to say that it could definitely turn more left and could make landfall any where within the warning area....CYA IMO.

I read, on this very site, that hurricanes don't stop, and make sudden turns.

(Forgive me, the bashing of Carolina "forecasters" predicting just such a turn to the North pisses me off).

*duh* COMMON SENSE!

If you are in the warning area, BE PREPARED!!!!!!!!

God, I hope people are taking this seriously.

There was a report on TV from Nassau, a local radio show guy there said they had underestimated Frances. :( :(

To the fool from this morning -- THIS is why SE Florida, including ***MIAMI***, should have begun preparations.
