I believe it must be a super precautionary move to begin evacuating the vacationers down in the keys...
These hurricanes, and the destruction...are in a SMALL window.
Not at all. It takes something like 24-36 hours to evacuate the keys. If you wait too long, it'll be too late. Once Tropical Storm force winds get there, the bridges become difficult or impossible to driver over. Also, there is a very good chance it will hit somewhere along the keys. They need to start getting people out now, or it will be too late.
