No it's a 3 now, they say it "could" reach 4 status. It hit me as a 1, and did some nasty damage to the Ft.Lauderdale/Miami area. (I'm just north of Ft. Lauderdale). So taking it seriously is a good idea.

A Level 1 Hurricane shouldn't even challenge the most basic construction techniques. :P Although, it did one helluva bit of damage to trees and the like.

 

And the highest recorded (tornado, not hurricane, but still :icon13:) wind was written in at 318 mph. Don't get the idea that you folks can't survive it. :D Because you're more than capable of it. :icon13:

 

Best of luck to anyone in it's path. Just be sure to have a safe place to go if you don't move further inland. :mellow:

In hurricanes, it's not actually the wind you have to worry about, but the rains. Flash floods are highly dangerous and do a lot more damage than the wind does, as I recall from my weather class.

 

Good luck to all those in the hurricane's path, and stay safe.

It's what's flying around in the wind that you have to worry about...

 

But you are right about the rain, in that most people killed in hurricanes drowned.

Well, Katrina (or what's left) has passed over my head now (in Ohio) ... locally, we had a bit of rain, some flooding, and a possible F-0 tornado with a bit of wind damage happen locally.

 

My prayers for the people who will have to rebuild now down south; it's gonna be tough, but people are amazing - they always seem to pick up the pieces and start over in the worst times.
