    Just remember - Riding out this monster is one thing. Riding out the aftermath is a whole different story. To me, the aftermath is the worst part of a hurricane.

    I remember seeing cars which were left abandoned on A1A after a hurricane. All as shiny as a new nickle where sand blasted from blown beach sand.

    Forward momentum has dropped to 5 mph, it will take about 10 hours for the eye to cross Grand Bahama and reach Freeport

    My unit already has 8 personnel (military cops) on stand-by with 2 alternates if someone can't go, if we are needed for hurricane relief down there. Y'all stay safe please!

    That hurricane in the background makes me want to enter through the backdoor though. With backdoor love, you don't need no glove.

    Small part of me is hoping it comes further up north. I could do with a little FEMA money for storm debris cleanup.

    My son is on the rifle range at Parris Island this week...30 years from when I was there when Hugo hit us in '89. We hunkered in place. Waiting to see what the call is for them. Dorian is a cat 5, Hugo was a 4. Both really nasty. For all of you in her path, I wish you and your families well. Be safe!

    That max sustained has dropped a lot. Is it losing steam or is that just a temporary dip?

    It's almost stationary over a strip of land, it should restrengthen once it moves into open waters.
