Re: Hurricane Elena, 1985

Elena was a very strange storm. I lived in Ft. Walton Beach and was working for GE who had responsibility for the Eglin AFB Test Range. We had to evacuate Okaloosa Island Radar Sites which was an all night scramble and then when it went over towards Tallahassee we got the all clear and then started to take things back out to the island. Within about 4-6 hours, we got the word it was coming back towards us and we had to re-evac the island again. Winds were crazy and the waves were washed out the fishing pier on the island. That storm was nothing like Opal though!
