Ah, no, I've not experienced that, Moose.
I live in Wales. We just have rain for seasons on end.

The difference is that I like the climate here, John. 
Are there any regulars in the path of the hurricane, Moose?

I am looking forward to the hurricane. I haven't been in a proper hurricane since Hugo in 1989. I could use a bit of excitement in why life! Altho, I am a wee bit concerned about the huge oaks on my estate.

No observing the drama from your tree house then, kibaluv?
Take care now, and if the storm hits, don't forget to drop by afterwards and let us know you're okay.

Thanks for the concern, Jac! I've been through plenty of hurricanes so I know the drill. Will probably lose power for a few days, so may not be able to check back in. Fingers crossed!

KarloradoFL: Stay safe Kibaluv!
A most purrrfect post, Karlorado! I grew up in Ft Lauderdale, so am no stranger to danger. I've survived three cat-4 hurricanes, 2 tornados & a Nor'easter whilst working on a shrimp boat off of Key West. 
It's all good . . .

I'm annoyed at those staying..No thought for those who will be risking their own lives to save them.

KIBALUV: I am looking forward to the hurricane. I haven't been in a proper hurricane since Hugo in 1989. I could use a bit of excitement in why life! Altho, I am a wee bit concerned about the huge oaks on my estate.
Those mighty oaks can make a mighty hole in a home. I don't have to worry to much about trees, but I do have to worry about other potential types of wind damage and severe erosion. I live about 90 miles inland in the sand hills, and my property is slightly sloping with a lack of vegetation in some areas. My driveway and the dirt road leading up to my house are the most at risk. I spent four hours on my little front loader tractor prepping as much as I can. If I need to I can jump on it during the storm and make emergency repairs to my flood control berms.I'm expecting the power to go out for at least 3 days. I have a small generator and fuel for 5 days if I use constantly, but I will be conservative with it just in case the power is out longer.
At this point there's not much more I can do, so now I'll just have to ride it out and deal with the aftermath.
