Having been a South Florida resident for many years, I have some experience with hurricanes - but even Andrew back in 92 was not like this storm bearing down on New Orleans.

Ian - I can only hope you and your family are safe and my thoughts and prayers are with you and any other members from this 05 forum that live in the threatened area who I have interacted with over the past year - this storm looks to be a history maker - everyone please please stay SAFE!!!

I am hoping it does not take a turn and come toward us. Between Ivan and Dennis, Pensacola has seen enough. I feel for the people in the area that it does hit.

Probably going to be the 2nd most intense Hurricane to hit the US and by far the most expensive.

Yeah really, be safe and do the smart thing if you're in that thing's path - GTFO and be quick about it. I live about an hour from where the 4 storms crossed paths with FL last year, so I'm thankful we dodged the bullet. Be safe guys.

Lily hit us pretty hard, we were out of power for about a week.

my prayers go out to all in her path as well. Hurricane season is the toughest part of being a Floridian. I hope she shows mercy on the people of New Orleans and its neighbors

Everytime I see your screenname, I cannot help but start singing "Stone the Crow". Again, be safe, and good luck.
