I already said elsewhere that I HAVE been thru similar severe storms (including hurricanes). I've had power out for almost two weeks. I've seen trees down and wires across streets.
I've also seen many, many, MANY dire predictions of horrific storms days out that end up shifting and causing little to no damage to my area.
We are still at LEAST a day away from knowing anything with certainty, and with every projection, the track of the hurricane shifts east away from the coast. Every shift means that the winds that would hit Florida, much less Orlando, will be slower.
Yes it IS a significant decision, and no one should be pushing people to make it before it's absolutely necessary. I'm not crazy... If it looks like the storm is still going to be hanging around by Monday afternoon, or looks like it will be close enough to the coast that the edges really do a number on Orlando, then I will cancel. But I'm not going to go into panic mode while projections keep shifting in a favorable direction.
