I heard they are extending hurricane season thru the 1st of the year.Dark Knight said:Around Nov. 30 it will.
Yes, in the middle of the eye it is calm. But that is pretty brief as it moves over you.scandi said:I thought if you are inside the boundaries of the eye wall there would be no wind at all. Only as the edge of the eye moves over you would it be windy, right?

You heard exactly right Sassy!Sassygerl said:Did I hear right that they think Wilma will hang out over Cancun/Cozumel until Sunday......OMG!!!!!! I can't imagine being one of the tourists (or a local of course!) unable to get out crammed in a shelter! I love both places.....Cozumel even more than Cancun and both are going to be a torn up mess!

Won't it end up back in New Orleans again?

I can't imagine. I mean, outside the resorts, people are very, very poor in these areas. They have nothing and will have even less when this is over. God bless them all.

WITH ISOLATED AMOUNTS OF 40 INCHES POSSIBLE. OUTER RAINBANDS WILL
CONTINUE TO AFFECT PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN FLORIDA... ESPECIALLY THE

I think you will have to forget Cozumel for quite awhile.Sassygerl said:Oh I am so worried!!!!! I feel for all these people...this storm is moving at a very, very slow pace. We had hoped to go to Cozumel in March, but I think the island will be destroyed. We'll see.....we still plan on the Caymans the first week of June just so we can stay out of the "storms" path. At least we pray and hope! Our kids love the Caymans! I pray we don't have more storms!!!!!!

The eye is changing dramatically now that Wilma is on land.

This has been quite a year for hurricanes; since records were first kept, this year we have had the #1, #4, and #6 strongest hurricanes on record--unbelievable.Sassygerl said:I've been diving there and also spent my honeymoon there.......I hope everyone there is safe....looks like a bad spot to be in!!!!! We outran a hurricane while in the Caymans this summer......oh the hurricanes. They seem to always be on our news lately!!!!!! I am already planning our vacation to the Caymans next summer the day the kids get out of school.......hate doing it that way, but with these storms we have to! They can go to camp later in the summer.........I hate these hurricanes and I don't live in Florida!!!!! Bless those that do!

The howling winds caused severe damage in Playa de Carmen, flattening dozens of wood-and-tarpaper houses, and sending everything from rooftop water tanks to boards used as window coverings flying through the air.Sassygerl said:I've been diving there and also spent my honeymoon there.......I hope everyone there is safe....looks like a bad spot to be in!!!!!
