Rebecca 0 #3 October 18, 2005 Just don't nail Louisiana again. Florida can handle it. Don't get me wrong, it'll suck, but it won't be the worst FL has seen... Good luck Floridians - you're old hands at this by now, so batten down and hold on! you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?

RkyMtnHigh 0 #11 October 19, 2005 QuoteEnough already. The past two years have sucked with storms. In West Palm, we're sorta ready...we're hopeful that the low pressure out west and north will force the hurricane south of us and even better would be south of the Keys. If that happens, we'll just get the high winds and rain on Saturday and all clear by Sunday sometime. I just don't understand why Wilma would maintain strength after making landfall near Ft Myers to continue across to the east side of the state. Many from my area are already planning to evacuate northbound sometime tomorrow. _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stacy 0 #19 October 19, 2005 Last year Frances & Jeanne made landfall over in West Palm. Charley made landfall in Pt Charlotte and look how devastated arcadia and inland cities got. If Wilma stays as strong as she is, at a 4 or 5, and I lived on the opposite side of the state, I'd be getting the hell out. You can bet if this thing is pointed anywhere within 100 miles of us (and right now it is) here we're on the road. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RkyMtnHigh 0 #20 October 19, 2005 QuoteQuote Florida are you ready? Yep, I got my tequila. If you, Jeff, and Rebecca are planning to stay..we should get together Saturday. Wilma is expected to be here in West Palm around 2 am Sunday. Cat 5 right now, but is expected to weaken to Cat 3 once in the Gulf outside Ft Myers. _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmpnkramer 0 #21 October 19, 2005 QuoteFlorida can handle it. We can? Shows what the perception is out there is. For those of us that live here is is a different story. There are plenty of people still living in rudimentary housing and all. We are still building from last years storms. Quoteit won't be the worst FL has seen... How the hell do you know that? Are you a forcaster? It currently has the lowest pressure reading on record. In case you do not realize the lower it gets the stronger it is. Quoteyou're old hands at this by now By this rationale we should be the only one's who can handle hurricanes? Our Governor tried to help Louisiana. They just refused to listen. Thier fault. I am sick of hearing about poor Louisiana when there are plenty of people here still homeless from last year! Some of our soldiers are very sick from being in the rot over there in that shit town. There are members of the military from all over trying to help Louisiana but they do not want to help themselves. It is all about "WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO GIVE ME?!" Florida can handle it because we work together as a community. Mississippi is the same way. They help each other. I am highly disappointed in your comments. I thought you were better than that. I do not complain about the hurricanes but to say, " We can handle it", "Old Hands", and "It is not the worst" when it has not even hit yet? C'MON!
