Yes, if he stays on track we'll be just a few km on the north side of the eye and that's the "bad" side. So far it's a cat 1 and could still turn a bit and slam into Belize. I'm not wishing that on them either though, the best for us would be a smooth threading of the Yucatan channel but then he would emerge into the Gulf and get stronger. No good answers.

Interesting, that forecast picture shows him going over both of our homes, the beach condo and the house in Merida. I can do without that.

We will decide on Monday whether to go over and get the screens installed on the jungle side of the condo. If it stays a cat 1 and stays a little to the south of us, we will probably not do it. For years we didn't even have the hurricane curtains and those windows were ok. Mostly the trees have grown up on that side in the last 8 years and it would be something flying off them that could break them. Lots of rain in our future, that's a for sure fact.
A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.
