Wow.................not only are they saying that there can be up to a 15 ft. storm surge, but the police have even told residents who stay that if they call 911, there won't be anyone to answer their call. One of the hurricanes has gone down to a tropical storm, but will still be sending energy to the other hurricane. This is something that hasn't happened for a very long time, having 2 storms hit at almost the same time.

Personally? I think this needs more news attention than the current infighting in politics right now. There are going to be lots of homes and businesses destroyed, with a lot of people displaced.
