The storm was well forecasted almost a week in advance and she headed
right into the main path as you point out. Unfortunately she seems to
be excercising bad judgement, or failing to get and interpret the
right data.

I wish her well but nothing good will come of this in the end unless
she improves her planning skills. Bermuda is a *very* unforgiving
landfall unless you get it right.


It could very well be that given her condition she chose to avoid Bermuda
and its hazards in favor of heading for safer landfall. It strikes me that
she has made some poor decisions -- but I don't know what information she
has gotten. It's easy to be a critic, safe at home. NeverEven Sawaboat
proves that.
