MBFLY...I wish you luck...i may have missed this but where are you in relation to storm surge zones/beach areas? If you are not in a storm surge zone then all you have to worry about is wind. I imagine you know what you are doing.

I am sure I am speaking to the choir on this one...but, if this storm is heading for your area...i mean you will get the eye wall....and you have plywood on your windows...you should also have a safe room away from those windows with blankets and maybe a mattress....plywood does not always work and can very easily be sucked off your windows when winds go over 140+ i.e., Hurricane Andrew...see link:

Btw, it is rather gusty here in SE FL tonight...hmm...good luck up there everyone.

"Jeanne, Jeanne, go away, come back another day!!" Clark can't wait for your analysis on this one....
