They really screwed up on this Hurricane here in Fl and SW Florida. No rooms in shelters and turning

people away. They didn't open any shelters until Fri. I'm a social worker so there was no shelter to bring our people to during our work hours. They thought the hurricane was going to hit Miami so hardly anybody was prepared here and it's last minute preparations. Apparently the European model was more accurate but we they looking mainly at all the American models (typical, right - that the Europeans are RIGHT. I'm at my mother's house along with my BF and my cats which is much safer than my place - which is estimated to be under water by the end of the storm. At the last minute, everyone from half of Naples was told to evacuate. If we would have followed the European model, we could have been much more prepared with plywood, sandbags. Most gas stations were out of gas by Thurs or had huge lines. Friday and today there was really nothing except for maybe 2 stations. Luckily, I filled my car up on Weds - only because I thought there would be price gouging. Most people thought they could hunker down in their places until this afternoon. Then they fled at the last minute to go to another place where there were no hotels where they will also get hit.
