It could just as likely hit North Carolina or Texas as Florida. Personally I want Franny to mess with Texas.

I dodged a bullet last time (Pic), i hope to god this one turns north and heads back out to sea.
 

How long have you lived in FL, i lived there for just about all of my 27 years. You get used to it.
You live in Orlando, not like you live on the beach, its almost fall, what do you expect?

any chance this will hit the northeast AT ALL eventually ? From the current path, doesn't look like it. I kinda need to get married the coming weekend so I'm worried.

My entire life, 19 years. I was born here, it wasn't really my choice.
Oh and BTW, it is now predicted to curve up and go right through central FL just like I expected it to do.

Charley was by far the worst hurricane I've seen, and this one looks like it's going to be more powerful, AND is going to make landfall closer to me.

Well Charley took my only one tree so I'm not worried... but the real problem is that they might not have all the damn debris picked up by then so it will be flying around smashing everything... If the hurricane is coming my way and my debris is out there, I'm having a bonfire, no doubt.

$1000 says it curves before landfall and hits more north.
The last hurricane to hit the atlantic side of central fl was Erin back almost 10 years ago with only 90mph winds (hit vero beach), this will curve, just like the ones before it. Why? Look at the weather system coming mid week, it will push it off. Dont be so dramatic.

If it curves north it will hit me head on. I'm a bit north of it's current projected path.

With the political sentiments of this forum, I'm suprised that nobody has mentioned how this will help Bush steal the election again.

As long as it misses Naples (which it will unless it goes all the way through the state) I'm not gonna lose stress over it.
