I chase after these things for a living, but this time it looks like it is coming to me. I put my 914 up high on jack stands if I get flooding, but if the garage comes down - I have no insurance on her. . .
We will find out Saturday - I hope this one turns ok. Lighten up Frances, Jay |

Nope, once the storm has been identified you can't get or increase your insurance.
Good luck on the east coast... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

It is too late now - could be covered under homeowners. I hope that I don't have to find out!
But, it is just a object - the wife and kids are what matters and they are in a good structure. I am already on the road, for now at the national hurricane center in Miami, tomorow I head for the storm. I have made the eye of 8 storms, and I was in Punta Gorda a few weeks ago. This one looks worse. Big money on this coast, multi million $ houses on the beach everywhere. |

Mine just happens to be up on stands anyway. We're about 100 miles south of you but still close enough to worry. Now if only I could get my house up on stands, the atlantic is about 150 yards from us. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) dr Attached image(s)

It is nice to be near the beach, but this is the price we pay. . .
Miami looks in the clear - But one wobble and you know what can happen, Miami would be a bad place to evacuate. You could spend days stuck on I-95. |

Its south of here and inland a few miles. We have an 8 month old and a four year old so can't take any chances. Also, ordered shutters for the whole house 6 weeks ago, they can't install until next week. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) dr |

Good Luck over there. Hopefully it takes a last minute turn out to sea. We were lucky here 3 weeks ago, even though I feel for those who got hit. I've driven through some areas affected and it's not good.

Good luck dR, Jay, Rob Watson, and the rest of our Florida friends.
Packing up our stuff as we speak. Off tomorrow night/early morning. I'll bring my laptop this time and check in from Atlanta. Regards, Qarl (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |

I was checking the NOAA maps. You Orlando and Palm Beach folks (and all of you really) should maybe go inland. From the upper left corner, Good Luck folks.
