  Being a Florida native, people just can&apos;t understand the power of hurricane winds. Next time your driving 74mph put your arm out of the window... and that&apos;s the start of a Catagory1 hurricane.<br>Cat1 = 95<br>Cat2 = 110<br>Cat3 = 129<br>Cat4 = 156<br>Cat5 = 157+

  It would have been worse if Emma played &quot;Nearer, my God, to thee&quot;!

  I faced this weather when I was at navy, and I loved it!<br>In Brazilian Navy we have this saying &quot;good weather does not make a good sailor!&quot;<br>I believe that the most secure vehicle on earth is a boat.

  teal peoples who haven&apos;t been through a cyclone / hurricane don&apos;t understand that its not just the speed of the wind but is how it is like a hammer as each gusts just gets a little stronger and then the next etc - this is what destroys the houses drags anchors etc - it is a unique feeling and why do they always seem to happen at night ? - glad all the cruisers were safe / so some good anchors and lots of chain and rode - well done all from rear armchair admiral (retired) jim

  i&apos;m so thankful you didn&apos;t have to go through Hurricane Michael. I don&apos;t remember the max wind but downtown gust were recorded to 202 miles per hour. We didn&apos;t loose much as other people and glad our manufactured home did really well although we did not stay. Most people stayed thinking it would be a minimal hurricane. When we got home we got miss put because the destruction was so bad. Could not tell where i was at. I had a sailboat that i sold two years earlier and it would have been lost. All the boats at the marina were lost. You are blessed. Thanks for sharing with us.

  My first hurricane was when I was 3-4 in the early 60s when I was on vacation with Mom and Dad in Daytona Beach. The storm was forecast to make landfall in Daytona so we had to leave our small beachfront hotel. I still remember getting up early in the morning and Mom was stuffing us with all the food in the kitchenette that would spoil. All the while the radio was telling people to leave and fill up their gas tanks. We left for Orlando to find a motel there. I still remember going to a store where we got some things and Mom let me get a toy. That night the lightening was so bright and constant that when the power went out, Mom could still see to read her book. The storm actually hit further north in St Augustine but when we returned to our hotel in Daytona, the ground and lawn up to 10 feet behind the seawall was washed away. Almost 60 years ago and I still remember. I wish Emma at least 60 years to remember her first hurricane! 👍☺️

  I have gone through 3 bad &nbsp;hurricanes on land and they were bad enough. Can&apos;t imagine being on a boat.

  A storm always presents a danger, but it is a natural phenomenon and very beautiful, I also love to contemplate it.
