Hopefully, Neal did not follow this plan - Wilma is targeting the area
just north of Cape Sable, which would put Neal in the danger zone. A
surge of 12 to 15 feet is possible. I'd be surprised if he would have
sailed 50 miles closer to the track in search of a hurricane hole.

CN actually did take that plan. I cut and pasted that part of his e-mail to
me. He left at daybreak on Wednesday morning, during the night the tropical
storm turned into a Cat 5 hurricane. If his plans have since changed, I
have not heard about them. He's been out of contact with everyone for five
days now. It would be dangerous to change his plans now. sigh

I tried my best to get him to come to Oklahoma, but you know how hard-headed
he can be. He wouldn't even answer my phone call before he left so that I
could try to talk him out of it.

LP wondering if I will ever hear from him again...
