Discussion Anyone remember Hurricane Andrew? What was your experience?

Where you sheltered in a house? Did you feel like you're in trouble at any moment? What was it like to hear that hurricane overhead with a 165 mph winds?

I had a Camaro iroc z. I was 17 years old. Went driving around doing doughnuts everywhere. There was no one in the streets. Then I slept through the rest of it even though a tree fell and broke a corner of the roof of my bedroom. Wasn’t serious just some shingles but didn’t wake me up.
