Hurricanes are a fact of life in the south, particularly at this time of year. A week ago, Gypsy Wind was buffeted about by Irene, but was well protected and no damage was done. I've been sweating blood for the last several days about Katia, a category 1 storm that has been coming up the coast. This morning, as you can see, NOAA.gov showed a substantial change in the track, and I shouldn't have to worry any longer...until the arrival of Maria, Nate, Ophelia, Philippe, Rina, Sean, Tammy, Vince and Whitney.And people ask me why I normally return to the Great Lakes every summer!
