We're booked into a site near Daytona for a month beginng 9/1. Since it looks like the hurricane will be upon us, we're considering rescheduling to the 20th. But then how much different will that be?
Traveling 1100 miles to be blown and rained on kinda stinks. Really disappointed since this is the only time we've been able to squeek out all summer. Any advice from you Floridians? We really don't want to go anywhere else. Maybe the RV will have to go back in the barn for the winter |

No way to know what a hurricane will do down here. Last year weather people said we would be hit with seven bad hurricanes plus ten smaller ones. We received zero hurricanes. We have been here a long time and in all our years we have only had a couple tree limbs broken out. Mother in law house lost a small number roof shingles over in mid of the state due to one hurricane. What we see is a good bit of rain and some wind. Other times storms have past in 20 miles and it did not rain a drop. I think you will be OK. Most all the hurricanes move up into the Gulf and into LA or TX. This is not to say that this year will be the same but based on past years the odds are good that we will have no storm damage.
One more trick you can do. If you see a problem coming move to other side of state for a couple days and them move back to the old campgrounds. People do this all the time. -------------------- John
