That is not a pretty picture.

How often are they right???

I know if it takes that path, we'll gate 5 out of Savannah. [img]graemlins/shakehead.gif[/img]

That's just one of several models they look at - BUT, they are getting more and more accurate all the time.

A lot can change between now and then, but I am preparing for the worst.

I think I am going to Lowes for a generator. I hate to wish a catastophe on somebody else, but I sure wish it would go in the gulf or preferrably stay out in the Atlantic.

DAMN! That sure looks a helluva lot like Hugo's path! What sucks is my family has 75 horses to look after....so, I can't leave!

[BUSHHOGIN]

I'll probably head to Garden City on Thursday to board up, videotape and bring back a few things. Won't decide for sure until Wednesday night and the picture should be a lot more clear by then.

For those of you with assets along the coast, what do you do?

What about in the midlands?

[curlybackdogs]

dukhntr, what kind of horses are you looking after? My son tells me we are in the market for a large pony for his Hunter lessons.

[dukhntr]

Curly, we have quarter horses, Tennessee Walkers, and draft horses. If you are looking for a pony, I will keep my eyes open for ya. Just let me know.

I haven't cleaned the shingles out of the yard yet. I hope thier wrong cause if thats right it stops on my house.

This is a shorcut to FSU on the Penn State site. On of the animations is for a Pacific storm. The others ae for the Atlantic storm. Two of the Atlantic animations show Francis cutting across Florida. Guess where the other ones show he storm going.

There is a high pressure located over Bermuda which, unless it breaks down, should keep the storm moving west until right before landfall. I think the storm will take a last minute turn to the northwest..........hitting between Jacksonville and Savannah.

It's going to be another Hugo............just 100-150 miles to the south.

OSD,.......you need to move your boats.

Keep your fingers crossed.

We're on go. Just waiting to see what the word is going to be.

Savannah/Beaufort is my guess. [img]graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I hope that is not the case.

[Low Country Sandlapper]

Savannah/Beaufort is the worst case scenario for us.

I hope not!!! If it hits that area all of the barrier islands (Fripp, Hunting, St. Helena, Lady's) will be destroyed!!!

[LabLuvR]

It best not destroy Hunting Island or Gay Fish Company, I will be some more pissed!!!!

Ricky I suggest you slap the red light bar on the roof, put the Escort in the wind and get all the homo shrimp you can haul.
