Yeah, Toby, I didn't like Ike much either when it was pointed almost directly at us. (And I really thought about using the I Don't Like Ike phrase as a thread title since I remember there was a time people wore I Like Ike buttons.) We were lucky and it mostly passed by us with some help from Cuba, but that storm track does look like it's headed right at you now, and forecasts say probably Cat 3 when it gets there. If you have a good 'hunker-in-place' strategy, and are well-supplied in a survivable building, you may be fine there. Otherwise it may be time to consider going inland a bit.
I hope something happens to weaken Ike or that it at least heads for the least populated areas up there (I don't say that when they come here since we are the least populated area).
