Re: into the crystal ball

Hello All.. In the past 48hrs we have heard here that this storm was going to enter apprx. at the south shore of Lake O, then it was the north shore, then possibly Charlotte Har. Then reports of Sarasota to even Tampa.

Is it safe to say that here in Ft Myers, we have a pretty good shot at a direct hit? Is it wise to get out sometime Friday?

Right now. The southern half of the FL Peninsula has a 50/50 shot at Hurricane Force winds.
That is subject to and will change.

Friday would be a good point to plan on leaving...but again. That is dependant on what Wilma does Tomorrow.

I would get everything ready and makes your reservations. Then Friday you can load and go.~danielw
