One thing that I still marvel at is the accuracy of long range hurricane prediction, the computer modeled paths; when I was young there was nothing like this. Meteorologists would make guesses but hurricanes were noted for being unpredictable.

Stay safe, man. Want to keep us updated?
Yeah we're planning on staying put, the other plan would be to go to my grandparents house (they have storm shutters while most of the townhouses and apartments in the development where we live do not), and we are about six miles or so from the coast. In two to three hours is when the wind and rain are really supposed to pick up. The hurricane is expect to be closer to the coast around midnight tonight. I'll try to update when I can, but any time after three o' clock eastern the chances of power loss increase and we don't have a generator.
