I wonder about Sarasota County...

I have 2 first cousins and 1 second cousin who live there...I sent them an email this morning and at the end of the email asked them...If possible evacuation orders are given, where will you evacuate to?

One of my cousins who is married...her husband's father and step-mother live in the Outer Banks of NC...so they may head up that way. Don't know for sure yet...will have to check for an email reply from them towards the end of the day.

Yep, we're bigger than Rhode Island... :) They're already instructing people here who have a "planned destination" to evacuate now and they'll make a decision about mandatory evacs tomorrow at the latest. The county EMS are predicting tropical storm force winds as early at 10p Fri night.
