Charlie I wish you'd reconsider.
Camille was a bit weaker earlier in the day before she hit too - and just before landfall she powered up, doubled her storm surge and came plowing through like a fucking freight train.
Listened to a story on the news this morning about some folks in an apartment building that decided to stick it out and have a hurricane party. Of the 20 folks in the building, 1 survived. The water was a foot from the ceiling in her SECOND STORY apartment and she managed to swim out and catch a log. She turned around and watched as the apartment building just collapsed in on itself.
They found her 3 days later 5 miles away, still floating and clinging to a log.
I really, really wish you'd reconsider.
If the winds are supposed to be *more* than 100mph when she gets here, we're heading for Tennessee. My kids' lives are too important.
