Please be kind if these questions are ridiculous.

1. Do we have to worry about the life threatening storm surge the news is reporting? Will our neighborhood flood?
2. Should we drive to the Orlando area and get a hotel room in a high rise building?
3. If we stay here, what should we do to prepare?

Thanks for any help you can give!
Sorry, that’s just yankee dumb. Look at a map. Surge is a function of the gulf/ocean. Do we live on the ocean/gulf?
