Not always, Irene hit hard last year. My car will be snug as a bug in the garage though.

I live in south florida we get hurricanes all the time its really funny how this storm scares you guys. Just make sure your car is high enough incase of water rising and you should be fine. Falling trees really wont happen with how weak the storm will be by the time it hits you.

Amen. It's just a rain storm, but the media blows crap way out of proportion ... like usual

Most people think that the media is responsible for things, but they are just one cog in the system by which corporations pretty much run the U.S.

It is the insurance companies, and to a lesser extent the state governments that over-hype storms in order to keep claims and emergency service costs as low as possible.
