I've noticed an increase in C-1whatevers flying lately and the Federal DMAT (Medical Asst. Team) has been loading 20 supply trucks staged out at the Southwood Office Complex ...

Question for the Tallahassee peeps: Hypothetical Cat 4 headed North making landfall at St. Marks... run or stay?

Run. A Cat. 4 will do unreal damage to the entire area. In 1985, Kate turned the area upside down and I believe the highest wind recorded in Tallahassee was only in the 60 mph range.

I was living in The Oaks of Killearn when Kate made her visit. There were wind gust of 85+ mph. It was the scariest sound I have ever heard.

If any hurricane was dead on for St Marks I run. :o

If you are on the coast and you don't run to get out of the way of a cat 4 storm, you got some serious screws loose in your head.

id pack up both cars with the valuable stuff hook up the boat and hightail it.. i learned my lesson from katrina in biloxi.. in tally i would worry mainly about tree damage.during hurricane george we had a pine fall over 2 of our cars and one on our roof.. it doesnt take much wind to knock a tree down when the ground is soaked.
