Well, looks like we might be having a hurricane here in a few days. We have been put on alert and will find out tomorrow if we will have to evacuate. The squadron made everyone fill out a evac form today with their destination and everything. The city has placed us on alert, saying that we will have more answers tomorrow.
This is kind of interesting. We experienced a Cat 1 when we lived in Va Beach, it was no biggy, but we have never been placed on alert for evacuation before. My MIL and FIL are in town visiting right now also. They had planned on leaving Thurs. but have now decided to leave tomorrow morning, just in case we have to evac on Thurs. They want to miss the rush, and I don't blame them. We went to Lowes tonight to get a few supplies, and it was BUSY. Lots and lots of plywood being bought. Base housing placed their alert on our website today. . and the base went from Hurricane CON 5 to CON 4 today. So things are looking like we might just be getting the heck out of dodge. I read a report earlier today that said they are expecting this to be a major hurricane when it makes landfall. So we will see how things go.
Just thought I would inform everyone of what is going on. . if we do have to evac more than likely we will be returning to AL and a couple of our friends are coming with us because their hometowns are outside of the distance we are allowed to travel. I will post more as I know what is going on.
