Hey everyone, I'm hoping this isn't the wrong place for a post like this... I'm a new member as of yesterday, so cut me a break if it needs to be moved
I moved to Florida last year, just after Hurricane season... So I never got a real chance to see how nasty it can get. I grew up out west in Arizona, so all this water is completely new to me. I've been watching the weather, and more and more thinking about Hurricane Igor, as well as Julia. Should this be something I should be worried about? I know this sounds totally igorant, but I'm a little perplexed as to what exactly would happen if Igor WAS to hit FL. Currently it's at a category 4, but has the potential to change into a category 5. Julia is following right behind, and went from a level 1, to a level 4 over night. I live about 10 Miles from the beach, but about 300 yards from the river. Am I just being a paranoid android here? They say as of right now, land isn't really at risk right now... but it seems most of these natural disasters are always creepers. Any input from some experienced east coasters would help put my mind at ease. Again, if this is in the wrong place... I'm sorry!
