I was listening/watching the weatherman this morning on tv. It does sound as if this hurricane could be a terrible storm. I'm in central NC and 2.5 hrs from the coast. Once in awhile we have high winds and have lost trees I think this one is not supposed to affect my area very badly. I feel sorry for all of you who might be affected if this storm comes your way. I'll keep watching the weather. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers... Kay in NC
