If you do the math, it works out that a Category 3 hurricane is essentially an F1 tornado that's a hundred miles wide.<br /><br />I've been in three now, none of them nearly as severe as Sandy or any of the famous ones recently (Katrina, Andrew, etc.).

I guess that's not a guarantee that can be made, so this experience has slipped way down on my list.Lee Ihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15721969338069074639noreply@blogger.com
