Re: Current Conditions

I agree people in the evac zones should heed the warnings.. but I don't think comparisons between Pensacola devastation and the expected impact of Jeane are valid.. the destruction of P-cola was primarily from the HUGE storm surge, not from the land-falling winds. Storm surge is a MUCH bigger threat in the GOM than on an east coast Atlantic land-falling cane. YES, take it seriously.. YES a CAT 3 will wreak its share of havoc.. but I think Pensacola/Ivan comparisons are stetching things.
