Same here in my state, the further south you go, the more expensive the gas
is. It never
use to be that way. It was always cheaper here.
Wilma was a cat 5 when I woke this morning, with winds at 175 mph. I know it
will
weaken when it enters the gulf, (some are saying winds down to 110 or so when
it hits FL)
I just wish it would go east in between the keys and Cuba. If I remember
correctly,
there is a tv station in Tampa that uses Vipir, a new computer program for
hurricane
tracking. We have a station here that used it, but there station got
destroyed. Vipir
has been very acturate in predicting landfall points. This morning all the
other mods
are showing it going at the same areas you talked about.
I would say evac here, but its not a nice area anymore. lol
