Hurricane Matthew

[SMiller]

Smiller, which direction are you from Orlando?

i heard Disney is closed. Talk about an economic impact! That may affect their stock price

45min. North of Orlando.

Well, since no one else said it....Does the picture remind you of Hillary?

I bet I've driven past you. We take 44 west to 4 south to get to Orlando attractions. How do you split time from IN and FL? I'd love to bring my kids out to see what you have going on down there

and for for the record, I'm sad my hurricane thread did not dominate despite it being before this one, the pic being from a day prior

You know, I keep telling my kids not to talk to strangers....

The cone of destruction is way north of the in-laws place. They are on the water in the intercoastal so we're hoping the storm surge doesn't get them. The tide is halfway to high.

I heard on the radio this morning that they are concerned that once it hits South Carolina it might head back south. I don't believe I have seen that before. My daughter and her family live in West Palm Beach and bugged out yesterday for Clearwater. They were going to ride it out but decided to be safe rather than sorry.

And apparently tropical storm Nicole is behind him. Apparently Matthew's track could skip off the east coast and head back out to sea in a clockwise arc. That would put it on a collision course with TS Nicole, causing them to combine and hit us again. I'm thinking this isnt the first time that happened. I cant name names but the late 90s pops into my head.

The ones that come to mind are were in '04. Frances and Jeanne were back to back hits.

Oddly enough power back on at midnight for mom. Yay

Hey it's 5:30am and we have power and no problems yet, I figure we are doing better then I thought we would be. Next 12hrs will make or break us.

Parents live just north of Jacksonville. They evacuated but heres hoping it avoids them there. Otherwise I might be helping with a cleanup.

Got a feeling this is gonna be a nasty clean-up. They will be calling in every cat adjuster in the nation. Billions of dollars in damage........wishing your folks the best.

All the cams I'm trying for the east coast area are down

We were at Disney, got up early yesterday and flipped on the news coverage and made the call to load up and head home. We were on the road by 9:00 am, no traffic to speak of. We took the turnpike to 75 north, then decided to head west across I-10 and head north through Bama. I stopped and topped of the tank while still in the Disney area, and didn't need fuel again until somewhere around Dothan AL, so sounds like we made the right call by getting out when we did.
