It is now Hurricane Dennis. An early season this year. I hope it hits
after midnight sunday so I don't have to stay at work for 26 hrs.
straight like Ivan.

Looks like it might be right up your alley Les...

It sure does, looked at the 5 day projection, doesn't look good. I just
hope it comes ashore before I have to go into work at Keesler AFB. The
EMCS bunker is a nuthouse when hurricanes hit. They forget everything
they learned the year before. I spent 26 hours straight in there last
year during Ivan. I'm on high ground and far enough inland that I don't
worry too much about my house. It has withstood everything since 1968
and that includes Camille. But, all it takes is one of those tornadoes
inside the hurricane and it is all over. If it turns into a cat 4 or 5,
I'm outta here, heading north and find a motel/hotel for a few days.
