Like most of the storms, the coast gets hit hard. The people in The Villages all get into panic mode and we get a little bit of wind and rain. The storm is currently off the coast of Daytona Beach. The next couple of hours appears to be the height of it for us.
I'm not saying that we shouldn't be prepared but I hear some people in total panic mode when the fact is that it's very rare for a hurricane, even one as severe as this, to do major damage this far inland.
Tomorrow we will be back to our normal lives as those along the coast will be in recovery mode for several weeks.
