although unlike some people, I do not actually want it to hit. I am tracking the storm because I have to because we chose to live in this location, and because I like to learn about hurricanes. I have noticed some people pretend to be scared of the storm (especially people on the east side where it will not be bad), but they seem to be excited about it hitting them so they have a story to tell. I would rather Wilma dissapates and leaves any storm stories untold. That would make a story in itself.
Excuse me, ask the people in Brevard county after Charly hit. Brevard is the east coast you know. Obviously it won't be as bad as a east coast landfall would be, however, level 2 hurricanes or even a 1 going over your head is not a pretty sight no matter what side it hits. I happen to live on the east side and mentioned that it scares me. YEP it does! Not only the winds but the tornado's that these things have been known to throw in the path are devastating. Even on the other side of the coast!
