one of the issues for me that I just realized when reading @dbostedo post is that I, too, know kind of what it's like to be in or near a storm there. We went through a 90mph+TD to low Cat 1 10 years ago. It was fine. but we were in the condo for 3 days straight locked in and I said after ward: that was cool, but never want to do that again and then about 5 years ago, East coast had a Hurricane and it missed us, but it was still impactful to the area. Ocean, barometric, everything changed and became unfun and weird/eerie. I think that's part of the reason I'm looking for confirmation. I've been there and didn't like it and in both cases realize that no matter where that hurricane may be it's a downer for the entire area 100+-200 miles wide.
