I hope you're just trying to get Silly Simon's goat.

As the storm gets closer there will be increasing demand on lifts and draw
bridges will stop opening for boat traffic as evacuating auto traffic is
considered more important. Leaving the boat at the dock is a poor idea
although many, including myself here in Florida, usually tie their boats
down until they look like they're the center of a spider web. Leaving the
boat secured at the dock usually results in a severely damaged or lost
vessel as the storm surge either raises the water above fixed piers and
floats floating docks off their pilings.

If the nasty girl continues as forecasted you will be okay, but anyone
near
the Chesapeake better be making plans or looking for a hurricane hole.
