Hurricane Michael Florida Coast RV'ers
I sure hope most of the snowbirds and full timers have not left early for Florida. Michael is due to hit the panhandle dead on as a Cat 3. Rock Crusher, Crystal River, Cedar Key are all VERY pop...

If your 3 feet above sea level and a 12 foot surge is predicted staying home can't protect your possessions. You can always purchase more stuff, you only have one life.
WOW, nothing like over-hyping the issue. I think rockhillmanor must work for the weather channel ;)
Lifelong Floridian here, and not really all that concerned. Yes, there'll be coastal flooding, downed trees and likely significant property damage of various degrees. But we've dealt with hurricanes almost annually for as long as I can remember. Always a good idea to evacuate if you're stuck in a RV, though many folks will just hunker down and look forward to a little cooler weather this weekend.
There's actually an excellent song for this occasion:
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
I understand riding out the storm ((IF)) your not in the direct path or the storm surge area.
