I just looked at the news and they said Wilma was a Cat. 5 with 175mph winds.   They say its heading somewhere in south florida.  Hope everyone get's out of harms way.

It wouldn't be a bad idea for everyone to print out the "nextel radio rescue numbers" at the top of open discussion. This would be good to have just in case there is cell service after the storm goes through.

From a tropical storm/Cat 1 to Cat 5-OVERNIGHT-     

WTF

 Bonk

The only positive I can see from this is work might be cancelled on Saturday but hopefully not any days after that.

That center line goes right over us (on the East Coast) Sad hopefully it will die down before it hits land, If it comes in south of Naples and goes across the Everglades and farms thats not much to knock it down.  It will march across the state in a Fury Angry

I'm with you on that one .... Except I don't think it's gonna be that bad by the time it hits here... It may be jsut a bunch of rain.... but then again I think it's going to turn & go towards the Gulf Coast .... ( Wishful thinking I guess ) .... Either way... Good Luck to everyone this weekend - - - we may all need it !

Ok so maybe things aren't lookin soo good.... As of the 11am advisory it looks like it's gonna make landfall mid-day on saturday .... So much for going towards the gulf coast ....  Angry I have better things to do than put up my damn hurricane shutters !

Great the morning I decide to sleep in and this is what i wake up to!!  This is scary stuff, I live in naples in a house built in the early eighties!!  It's a wood frame, I really hope this thing goes back down to a cat 2 or 3 anything else other than a cat 5 would be a blessing.  Hunker down everyone cause I don't think we'll be in Kansas anymore.

Hmmm dont quite know what to think of this. Lowest in milibar storm, last one in the english alphabet and we still have till november 30th. The season is only predicted to get worse. I high doubt it will go straight north or turn west. The westerlies or the cold front coming through is going to push it east. Hopefully the cold front will hit it and it will knock off some of its power. Myself, i am saying it will hit further north than Naples and go through Orlando. Lord help the victims.

It is still too early to project it pretty assertive path.
