P'Cola, I'd prepare for the worst due to the massive size of this storm. You're probably in the Hurricane Force wind field and with surges projected 6-7 feet (perhaps 10 feet near the AL-FL line), this is no storm to fool around with - from earlier posts, I think you're pretty close to the beach and GOM, correct? Among other things, I'm worried about a massive storm surge with KAT. Look, Dennis caused 8 ft of surge in St Marks, and it was a much smaller and weaker storm. You will no doubt be on the strongest, deadliest east side - I know you're fascinated like the rest of us with this freak of nature, but get to higher ground if you're in the tidal flood zone.
