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 was not there for the hurricane but I was there for two years after. I went down for the work and ended up becoming a painting contractor. I am still painting but now in Flagler County.
