in 04 charley was supposed to hit the st pete-tampa area, and hit us in our backyard. sucked

 

I seriously hope it doesn't hit Houston. I moved from Florida and thought I would be out of Hurricane central. Been in Houston for a little over two weeks and already had a Tropical Storm and now it looks like a Hurricane could be coming close to here. I had enough of the hurricanes a few years ago in South Florida. Please go to Mexico lol

 

all i know is my hospital is going on lockdown next week depending on where dean hits, unfortunatly ill be the "lucky" soul to work the graveyard shift..stupid hurricane

 

ya hopefully it doesnt hit houston because im not leaving this time hell no on sitting in traffic for ever and i have to many toys to take with me lol and the z in the shop now

 

Looking better for a lot of us. Just keep you fingers crossed when they are so far out it really just a rough guesstimate. Had plenty of experience with the horrible predicted paths of Hurricanes in Florida

 

Looks like Beaumont and Houston may be dodging bullets for now.

 

Since Katrina, Little Rock has been a staging point for gulf hurricanes considering you can safely be here and anywhere in the gulf states next day.

I heard on the radio there are thousands already headed here for safety and staging.

 

But that is good! At least good planning and staging has gone into effect in good time. On the plus side your town should reap some benifits in the restraunt/hotel/gas sales ect. Good for your economy for the moment.
