Me too. Been boarding up my own house and family houses all day. F*cking monster is Cat 5 with 185 mph winds. It's gonna skim my town up in the NE corner of Puerto Rico, so we're preparing for the worst. Not since Hugo in '89 are people so apprehensive about an approaching hurricane. Safety is of utmost importance, of course. But I'll be bummed about being without power, maybe for weeks after that.... we'll see. Should be passing by tomorrow afternoon into the night.
Although I'm in "Hurricane Alley" I'm not on the coast so the worst thing Hurricanes can do to me is spin off tornadoes (Hugo was the WORST for us too) and/or cause flooding.

When I was in college I was on the coast and hell if a storm was a Cat 2 or lower we'd have parties which...but hell if it was 75 and sunny out we'd party then too.



I hope yall both stay safe and dry....have some booze on standby!
