Stayed at Ocean Waves CG in Waves last month. Had near perfect weather....high 80, low of 65. A little windy on our last day but dealt with it. Can't wait to go back.

I would have thought Cedar Key would have done worse.  Glad you did so well!

I thought about going to a FL state park at Port St. Joe but decided that might not be the best choice.  They ended up evacuating RVs and campers yesterday or Saturday.  Woulda been inconvenient!  We'd thought about the Outer Banks earlier too, when Irma's path was wide open.  You can't think of the Outer Banks for hurricanes.  So we decided on one of our favorites, the Great Smoky Mountains.  We knew we'd get rained on, but that's perfectly normal for the Smokies, so we made reservations and showed up right at the time they decided to let everyone know the park would, essentially, be closing the next day on account of Irma.  We decided just to keep going east to the Outer Banks.  So far, so good.  Irma might bring some rain.  I thought it was supposed to be here already, but things are still dry.  25 - 30 mph winds.  Apparently great for kite boarding...  There is some concern, it seems minimal, about Jose, but things look okay so far. 

The OBX are great this time of year -- I know Leo knows.  Still, I'm a little amazed to be here because of Irma.

Lucky you! So happy to learn you did dodge this storm and came out okay. I hope the same for other folks on this forum that are in the path of this monster of a storm.

Hope to head out in a few days for the coast now that Irma has luckily past us by.

Glad for you!  I thought a lot about you as the storm progressed.

Cedar Key looks to be close to the predicted landfall of this nasty storm.  Praying that lots of its energy is worked off by then.
