While I wouldn't be surprised with heavy rainfall and even winds that could reach 70+ mph, we could also very easily lose electricity for days...so that's the primary issue that I'm planning on and preparing for.
I'm with you, I'm gone if there is any danger, but, I just don't see any. My fear would come into play if this storm goes into the gulf but not east of Florida.
