Category 5

The headlines reads: IVAN IS A CATASTROPHIC CATEGORY FIVE HURRICANE- AND IT IS HEADING FOR JAMAICA ...and, by the way, we are just northwest of Jamaica. This is what the article has to say:

History is being made today as Ivan has become a member of the rare 'category five club'. This is now 'as bad as it gets'. And the news for Jamaica is not good either- Ivan is heading right for the Cairbbean island. The latest NHC track forecast puts Ivan over Jamaica tomorrow afternoon- hopefully just under cat-5 strength. Once past Jamaica, Ivan is forecast to pass over Cuba and then slam in to southern Florida- coming straight up the peninsula. This would be very bad indeed and I hope that people take this more seriously than they have taken anything in a long, long time. We are looking at a potential horrific disaster- especially since Ivan is forecast to track right over the Florida Keys. There is only one way out- U.S. 1- so when officials tell you that it is time to go- you go! Listen to what the local authorities are telling you and follow their directions closely. There are no other alternatives to riding this thing out should it follow the projected path. Also- GET GAS as soon as you can- fill up DOT approved containers with extra gas. Be ready- Ivan is coming and it could be very bad. I will have another update here in a little over an hour.
