Daytona show - hurricane ??

ohh_kristina · 08-12-04, 01:37 PM

Those of you that are planning on going to Daytona this weekend - are you still going? I live in Tampa and it seems this hurricane business may be serious. I was going to drive up early Saturday morning, but I'm not sure if I want to take the risk. What about you guys? Still going?

I missed the show last year, and I am supposed to be picking up a pair of hypo stillwater bull snakes at the show, so I'm really upset at the thought of not being able to go.

I just got off the phone with Scott, he tells me that Daytona has been evacuated. I intended to leave now and spend the night there, as of now I am planning to leave about 300am and arrive there tomorrow about noon. I have called the promoter and the Ocean center and both voice mails say the show is still on. If anyone gets any solid Intel that the show is cancelled or postponed please let me know. I will not be back on the net till Monday. My cell is 423.580.7513. Thanks.

Still currently 140mph winds category 4 hurricane, it is on top of florida as I type, My heart goes out to any affected by this storm (My grand-parents are to the right of the eye). We are not being hit too bad, nobody here has boarded up but we are expecting heavy winds and rain, there have been multiple tornados and flooding all over. Good luck to anyone attending Daytona, I am now not going to go myself. Flights stop landing at 8 at Melbourne, Daytona, Jacksonville, and any in-between at 8pm.
