My small island, is on the outskirts of North Carlolina, wich is in dead path of hurricane isabell. We usaly stay for every hurricane, but we might be leaving for this one. Though its weakining from Cat 5 to Cat 3 (165 MPH winds to 105 MPH) We are boarding our windows up as I write this, but 105 MPH wont do insane damage like 165. Anyway, just thought I would let anybody know, who this intrestest.

Welp, looks like they are evacuating everybody. And it looks like we are staying, got tons of food, flashlights, matches, water. This hurricane doesent look any diffrent then any other now, since its weakining. This is nothing new to my family, but I dont have any friends staying with us this time. We usaly go find wind tunnels and fly around on skateboards on empty highways and such lol.

Good luck :| I tell you, I'd be cacking myself if I was ever in a hurricane. Take care, and I hope you are safe and well when your ordeal is over.

Hurricanes must be nasty. I live on an island too actually, right in the ocean. The difference is we have a giant mountain range about ~1km high that stretches for something like ~50 km. Not really sure of the measurements....but I'm safe.
Exciting, I have to try skateboarding on wind sometime..

I live in Virginia, and the college admins are emailing everybody details of what to do in a hurricane. Not many people seem to be too worried about it, yet there is still a question of whether class will be held on Thursday.
Although VA is technically in the path of Isabel, I'm more concerned for those who are going to take the worst of it.
Stand tall, Rycon!
Mayhaps.

You live in virginia? Where? You ever come to the OBX?
Aye, I wonder if I will see a house fall into the ocean again, or get chased by waves crashing over the dunes (again).
I will keep you guys posted if anything amazing happens. lol
