and it's now just starting to move into the warmest waters. It is ready to explode. I still stand by my category 5 statements. The eye of Frances will once again be upon you, Florida. Get out while you still can.

How can they get out if no gas and your car stops because it has no gas. I pray for their safety :(

I seriously doubt she'll make a 5, but she may
regain strong 4.

Had the shear not hit, I would probably have agreed with you.

I hope you are wrong tristate but we are nervously watching and waiting. For those out of gas, it may be too late, but ever since I sat 6 hours in stopped traffic during floyd I have kept 25 gallons of fuel in my gargage. Ready to run if need be. Sorry for the long run on.

Thank God for that shear! I'm praying for safety of those people on the road.

Much more convection on western side. Lessening shear?
