Royd 0 #5 June 11, 2006 Enjoy. Being on the outer fringes of a hurricane is a thing of beauty, and awe. Hopefully, for the peoples' sake we won't see one this year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkydiveStMarys 0 #8 June 11, 2006 After living on the coast...fla/ga border...for close to 11 yrs...it gets tiresome...being a home owner and seeing some close calls...nope sorry...not much fun. Now when I was a dzo and running a flight school for a friend of mine and we had four hurricanes back to back two years ago I was ready to be committed...flew airplanes out only for them to come back and fly out again in a matter of days. Trying to find room in a hangar...that wasn't in the path of a hurricane and finding the $ to buy av gas and hotel rooms...oh thank you dear Jesus that I don't have to do that again.

yamtx73 0 #10 June 11, 2006 Yeah it gets old after a while... like by the end of your first active hurricane season... the past 2 summers we've spent as much time boarding up and unboarding as we did actually working...

NlghtJumper 0 #11 June 11, 2006 Well, welcome to FL. Hurricanes don't do anything for me anymore. I grew up in Florida, lived on the Atlantic coast for 18 years. After a while, if its not a Cat 3 you don't pay any attention to it, and if its not a Cat 5, you don't even think of evacuating. We left once, but when your doing 5 mph down the interstate... you tend to never want to do it again. We much rather wait it out then leave.

NlghtJumper 0 #12 June 11, 2006 You board up? I think we have tried that like, once. We lived in our current house for 8 or 9 years now, never did it once to this house...

NlghtJumper 0 #13 June 11, 2006 Never played in the ocean, but jumpin on a trampoline in high winds sure is a lot of fun. Walk to the front, jump as high as you can, and you land at the back. Man, I miss the old days...

matt1215 0 #14 June 11, 2006 Nor was I, she WAS just a big windbag. It did give me a couple days off work b/c closed the base. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yamtx73 0 #15 June 11, 2006 Yes, we board up at work... plus being part of a construction company we get alot of calls to board up other people's windows... usually spend 2-3 days boarding up and another 2-3 days taking the plywood down again...The only naturals in this sport shit thru feathers...

I am unimpressed with less than a Cat 3. I enjoy watching storms (not to say I want anyone to suffer as a result of them). And I hate the way the seas get messed up with debris and wreckage (though setting the Speigel Grove upright was freakin cool)! I remember when Floyd Cat5 was due to hit (ended up skimming Atlantic coastline) I was in Orlando (2hrs away) it took me 6 hrs to get back due to backed up evac traffic!! I say wait it out if less than 3. TLet's have fun! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
