For those of us who come from the midwest, our advice is to simply adjust your golf swing a bit into the wind.

AMEN! I pray that you and your folks and friends will be safe, in God's care! May you be in the shelter of His arms until the storm passes by!

that being said, my house is built to the latest hurricane standards
with metal window covers, and a metal roof tied down to the foundation

people whose houses are not equipped should evacuate

Re: Pray for Us Easterners

Soon after hitting the NC shore, the eye wall collapsed and the sustained winds went down to around 38 mph. You can click on this interactive map (link below) and see what the current wind readings are for the given location. This ain't no hurricane no more. As with any storm bearing a lot of rain, flooding will be the main concern... that and thrill seekers who just want to go and "check something out."

You can scroll the page north to see the current location of the storm.

Re: Pray for Us Easterners

Thankfully... Pel is right.

We still have tornado warnings popping up, but the wind threat has greatly dwindled.

One tornado touched down about 40 miles south of me, destroying one home and damaging 14 others.

Other tornadoes have been dancing around us.

Rain is pounding, too. Flash floods in our area. Our beaches are messed up.

Two children have died in separate incidents - one car accident, the other a fallen tree. So sad.

Thanks for the prayers!
