Here on the East coast of Florida, precautions are now under way. They are saying winds may be down to 110 by the time it hits here.

I am scheduled to play an upscale mobile park Saturday night. Called them..and they say they plan to go ahead with their dance. I hate to be the one to cancel...but I might. Its a 45 minute drive in good weather...and may be impassable with Wilma.

My thoughts at the moment are with Tony Rome.

Here Is the report from here in Cozumel Mexico.....IT IS THE WORST SRORM ON RECORD..
it is a cat-5 with 175 mph winds, it is supposed to hit tomorrow in evening and stay until Fri afternoon....it will do a lot of dammage I'm sure....as I said in earlier post 2 days ago, I have a wierd feeling about this one and I've been through a lot of them both here and on the east coast of the USA...this will be a bad one....they are sending people out on every available plane and are not sending any more
in...the ferry boat tto the mainland will quit running at 5 pm today....who every is here after that stays here...no way off of the island after 5 pm...I understand that flights are being canceled from the US to here and Cancun...it looks like Gary will be canceled....however he may come in a few days later...as it stands now, it looks like we are in some BIG DODO coming our way.
I will of course keep everyone updated when
ever possible as long as we have power...
News Flash....I just now got off the phone
with Garay and he will cancel his flight, I'm sorry I won't get a chance to visit with him but it's looking bad for tourist...
This is Tony Rome reporting to you live from Cozumel Island in the heart of the Mexican Caribbean with the approaching Hurricane Wilma.....

Thanks Pose...and to everyone else out there

I don't want the same thing now,keep praying

Tony,

The trip was officially cancelled at 6 p.m. EST. I was really looking forward to speding time with you and your wonderful family, and hopefully, we will be able to do so sometime in the near future. Please be very careful--this is the most powerful storm I've seen in my lifetime.

Keep us posted,

Gary

Bad news for Tony I'm afraid. Wilma is going to linger over the Yucatan longer than previously expected. This means much of the fury will be spent before it bounces off the California low toward South Florida.

Thanks Scott L for the link to a very comprehensive site.
