If you want a place to store the car, you could bring it to my shop about an hour north of you.

Somewhere inland that has a parking garage...like an airport or a mall. It may cost you a few bucks for the day or so but worth it for the piece of mind I'd say.

If I was in a hurricane, I'd probably set up a webcam and broadcast it. I'm a geek like that.

Man,I feel ya s86d,I live in Jacksonville,and that hurricane is supposed to hit me right after you. I was think'n about leave'n my car on the 3rd story of a park'n garage to avoid the flooding and ****. Well,here some advice......Leave now! Haul *** and save your children.Put them somewhere where fly'n branches and flooding waters won't destroy them.

Do what every1 says and get the **** out. Store your cars somewhere safe. Just get a friend to drive the beater. We cant stress this enough.

Hey Im in Miami, and have been thru Andrew and others. This one is not that bad. If you can keep your car in a storage place, its like 70 dollars. Then just stay home. It wont be so bad, and with all the leeches that are out there after a huricane, I would hate to leave my stuff and come back and everything be gone. If you want just drive down to Miami. We can hit the crip-crubs and You'll be relatively safe.
