Hurricane Frances is still far off, and is a Catagory 4 ALREADY. And this sucker is VERY well held together, which probably means it will become a Cat 5, which is what Hurricane ANDREW was.
I hope not guys, because I saw Homestead Florida before and after. Think of Lush trees and nice homes, then a desert with NOTHING but foundations, no trees.. My Half Brother lives there (Rebuilt)...
Anyway, if it hits Central FL and is a Cat 5, and goes over Lakeland, we are HISTORY. I just wanna let you know. Our house will be at the least, damaged.
We have Homeowners and other coverages, but damn... KEEPING an eye on this monster.
