Isabel a monster Category 5 storm:

If that hit central Florida... well, let's just say that our house wouldn't be in one piece. Gusts to 195 MPH!! What sucks, is it LOOKS like it's going to hit land) and whoever is in the way, they better SERIOUSLY run.

We visited Miami, FL where my half-brother lives, and when we went before Hurricane Andrew hit, the neighborhoods were lush, and full of trees and such. NOW, it looks like a desert. NO trees, ALL homes were lost.. It looks like a nuke hit it. And it looks like this for miles... Just NOW, they are finally getting back to normal, planting new trees and stuff, but many people moved away after Andrew.

Z, I do seriously hope you are planning on going inland...I was in Andrew, and saw what it could do, and all we caught was the tail end of it to be hit head on by one could totally anihalate(sp?) you. I am sure if you leave now, you can get a place to stay somewhere far away from Florida. would offer a place here, but we do not have any room, and besides, we sometimes get left over storms, when they go back to tropical storms, so we would probably still have it rough too

Just the ever-present danger of losing all your air pressure and being simultaneously boiled and frozen [img]smile.gif[/img]
