I usually take your posts as gospel but I gotta disagree this time around. I think many in Florida are reading your words and thinking it means that they will not get hit. I implore you to err on the side of caution. When I read people talking about how they don't see a storm surge yet, in a storm that is three days away, like it will be a non event, it gives me chills right down my spine.
I am not a professional and this is just my opinion. Always refer to the professionals for advice.
