Being an emergency manager and getting a call from the National Hurricane Center director on a cell phone at night is one of the most tense experiences you could ever go through. He just wanted to give me a heads up.
Generally speaking, we came through fairly well. There's a lesson here: to acknowledge the power of a tropical cyclone.
I said beforehand that I thought people would be unpleasantly surprised by the power of this storm, and I think they have been unpleasantly surprised.
We haven't even seen Wilma's core pass yet. We can expect this to be stronger than anything we've seen in the last couple of years.
We're going to see some very hard weather, probably until mid-afternoon. People need to stay indoors and off the road until it's all clear.
Wilma was bad enough, but within a week or a couple of weeks, we were getting back to normal. Imagine a Category 3 or 4 and six weeks or more of inconvenience.
