Re: Wilma Nearing Landfall

That's not good...Brian Norcross here was saying that while the storm has arrived for the keys...the "real" storm surge hasn't occured yet...what they've got now is from the south..once the storm gets a little further inland and the winds are coming at them from the north they were expecting surge in the neighborhood of 5-8 ft. I only hope that anyone that decided to stay understands what a foolish thing that was to do with no emergency help available or hospitals open and learns a lesson. (saying prayers that it's not the hard way)
