~~trying to reason with hurricane season~~

[Carsman]

It's showing that it's going to exit straight through here as a strong 2. If that's the case then my power is 100 percent getting knocked out. If you don't hear from me it's not because I'm at the Magic Kingdom. Unless I get blown over there. I have two large dogs, two cats, a rabbit and a leopard gecko. If it looks really bad I'm going to have to pack them all up with me and leave by tomorrow morning.

Good luck sal, hope you don't get stuck in massive gridlock. Many folks are waiting for the last minute also, you may want to consider going now. When there's just gridlock. 

We won't be (can't) leaving our abode under any circumstances. 

I meant just going over to the mainland to my husband's office. I'm not getting gridlocked on the highway, I think I'd rather die lol. I'm a block away from the ocean and we usually get evacuated to the mainland even though they always get hit worse and flood.

Well yeah, that close to the ocean you really need to get to safety. Yeah, being gridlocked on the highway would be a killer situation. We are about 6 miles from the ocean, and all the sewers in our development and surrounding area, have been replaced, so flooding has been rectified. Our 47 year old CBC structure here has been through many many hurricanes without any major damage. So . . . . . . 
(Hope I just didn't jinx it)
