News and Society > Hurricane Wilma - Awaiting the Storm - Delray Beach, Florida

Here in Delray Beach, Florida we quietly await the arrival of Wilma. Looks like for now Monday is the day. Looking at the weather channel we could be in line for a direct hit by the eye of Wilma when it slams the east coast. I have lived in south Florida for 8 years and I don't think I will retire here. Tired of hurricanes.

Right now its a waiting game. The lines at the gas station are more than tolerable. Few homeowners have put up their hurricane shutters. I am waiting for the weekend. It will be my luck that it will heave with rain starting about the time I go to put up the aluminum shutters. I already have the bolts in place for the shutters; I had better go see if my electric screwdrive is charged.

For last years two hurricanes I was

without power for a total of 12 days. To get cool I would ride around in the car with the AC on. The 12 days seemed like a year. Yes I have a good food supply, lanterns, batteries, and a 12 gauge shotgun. I did not buy a generator and I don't feel like buying one now. If I pushed it last year FEMA would have paid me back if I bought one. After what happened in New Orleans maybe I should not feel guilty about getting a generator paid for by the taxpayers.

I will post after Wilma goes by just in case anyone is interested how we faired in Delray Beach.
