Looks like Frances is on the way

We'd better be spared. I've got a dive trip to the keys next weekend.
I'll be PISSED if I don't get to go. MORE if I do get to go, but don't get to dive.

I am keeping our plans to dive the SE area fluid at the moment, i can always cancel the hotel reservation more than 24 hours and only get a $25 fee - better than going down to find viz blown out by big waves or finding ourselves in the middle of a hurricane zone (again) - we shall see! Will be able to make a better decision on this around tuesday/wednesday i guess when it reaches the Bahamas or so and starts showing if its going to turn. Lets just hope

Well I hope you guys and girls stay safe. We have our own Cat 5 typhoon hitting Kyushu Japan starting tonight. The wind is already very strong outside now, and it's just the beginning. Rain forecast for tomorrow is also 500-700mm - big floods. This one looks like quite a ride.

Good Luck Kim
I drove past Port Charlette yesterday, and it is so different to see the devestation live. Incredible. Incredible. Incredible. Lots of Blue roofs--as in tarps. Hurricane hit 2 weeks ago, and we saw downed powerlines, poles down, hundreds and hundreds of trees down...and that was just from the main roads...we didn't tour the area, just passed thro!
Batten down the hatches, and PRAY!!

The crazy thing is while we know its there, there isnt any defined route of progress until it actually happens. Still, I'll take a hurricane over earthquakes any day!
