Default RE: Tropical Storm Fay?

Here in St. Augustine we were getting it really bad at about 3am but it was time to go to bed... I woke up at about 9 or 10 and it was still some pretty steady wind with some good gusts every now and then... as of right now the eye is pretty much right on us but it's not very organized... looking out the window to the beach I can't see any beach it's all water, it's about 5 feet up the beach ramp... the ramp is a inclined road a good 10-12ft.. and we sit adjacent to the biggest dune around, the house is another 5 ft maybe above the road. So were a pretty safe distance above water... It scared the hell out of me though 2 nights ago when they thought it was going to hit us as a hurricane or maybe a Catagory 2. I know for sure if we get a anything of a catagory 2 or more we defintaly can't stay here, it's evacuation for sure.
