Plain and simple fact. But there will be wind driven rain that will FIND a way into
your windows, under doors, etc. Again, wrap your good stuff in trash bags and
keep it UP on something or on a second floor. ANd tie down the stuff you can't
bring in and tell your neighbors to do the same.
I'm not terribly worried about my house, but I live on an Island, with one way on and one way off. Back in 92, the bridge was covered in water, and there was no on/off which is the bigger concern. If anything happens we would have no way to leave or get help.
