Watchful Waiting
Isn't that what you call it while you wait for a situation to either clear up, or turn to poop? That's about the deal right now with Ivan and us Fort Walton Beach folks, I suppose. Eye of the Storm is doing his hurricane thing, and in the course of his research dug up a bit about Eglin AFB! Eglin's maybe ten miles east of here, as the storm-driven trashcan flies. Just drop into his page and scroll down a bit for some info on Eglin's hurricane history.
We'll be "watchfully waiting" here for a couple of days as the track develops. I don't mind taking a hit if it gives the Charley- and Frances-blasted areas a chance to recover, but man, maybe it's time to hope for some weakening here!
