Even if you do not live right along the coast,
be ready. Google Camille. It hit in 1969 and was a Cat 5.
Even after it crossed into Virginia, it dropped devastating rain.
A storm this size will probably not dissipate quickly, and its
effects can be felt far inland.
Be safe!

Hurricane Hazel did the most damage. It came ashore in SC where I live.
It lasted long enough to impact Canada.

5. Last year with Erin, we learned that lesson.
The weird thing was, the storm started to organize again over the Oklahoma Plains and another eye formed. It was the creepiest thing I've ever seen. My mom lost everything in that storm. We both lost a lot in that storm. But she's alive, that was the important thing.
