That sucks. The worst storm i've had here in California was about a year or two ago, one came down from Alaska (I think, somewhere like that). We had like 60mph gusts, heavy rain, thunder and lightning, some hail every now and then, and people were sliding and crashing everywhere on the wet roads. Not to mention a power line that fell by my house, caused a big fire and black out. Well, at least it was entertaining :P

I've had my power out for a week, on two separate occasions, due to hurricanes.

I know what it feels like, and it sucks.

People in My area are just Waiting for another hurricane to pass through us. :D
I think we'll be living in total fear every hurricane season. Lol

Where I live I'm just glad the Mississippi river and "Swamp" areas don't over flow with water.  :-\

So many hurricanes have passed through here that everyone's just "A category 2 hurricane? So what?"

That sucks.
The only water I have is the Great Lakes. :P
We don't really get many bad storms around here. I just remember a few years ago there was like 70 mph winds(or something like that) and heavy rain, thunder, lightning, and hail. The lightning struck a tree near our house and burned the top half right off. :O
