It wasn’t very eventful; just a lot of sitting around watching the rain. The last bad one I can remember was September of 2017. I’m bad with the names but I think that was Irma? Anyway, it was a category 5 and it was bigger than the entire state. I was off that week so I got in my car and drove to New York to wait it out. I was supposed to fly but all the flights were cancelled. But the worst one ever that I was here for was Wilma in 2005. Just awful! I remember seeing cars turned over and houses all around me not even being there anymore. We had no power for 9 days so I went and stay with my mom and my grandmother cause they were the only ones I knew with power. I would get up, go to work, go home to see if my power was on yet, and if it wasn’t then drive back to my mom’s house. No water in the stores, little food, half the stores closed, no gas, etc. And this was why I left for the 2017 storm. I don’t ever want to go through all of that again.</blockquote>
