Hurricane Rita: Officials Order Lower Fla. Keys Evacuated
Officials ordered residents evacuated from the lower Florida Keys on Monday as Tropical Storm Rita churned toward the island chain, bringing with it a potential 8-foot storm surge. Hurricane warnings were posted. …
Despite the evacuation order, however, some hotels and restaurants in Key West remained open, and few businesses were boarded up Sunday night.
In the Bahamas, which would be struck by Rita first, few on Mayaguana Island bothered to board their windows or stock up on emergency supplies as they normally would for a hurricane, said Earnel Brown, manager of the Baycaner Beach Resort.
“I don’t expect that much trouble,” Brown said. “I don’t think we’re going to have that much damage from it.”
Yeah, those hurricanes are seriously over-rated.
