No. Last I checked anyway and since it won't be cat 4 or 5 when it gets to me. I am out of a flood zone. There's a shelter at a middle school a few blocks on even higher ground if it get's iffy. I am packing stuff for that option.

That estate sale across the street is still going on.

Only one house around me putting up boards. I am being tunneled in as I type. It's dark...and I missed the boat of the right size batteries.

Well that sounds good, I would still avoid the tree that has the potential to shed large branches.

I have lots of batteries in a draw in my studio. Just not for the lanterns I bought after going through 4 hurricanes in 2004. Those are D size. I have a few Ds but each requires 4. I had 4 of them in one lantern but they corroded. I just thought that'd be fine and that I had extras that size. Found out two days ago I only had 2. I've shopped for days looking for them. All Cs and Ds have been out. I'll be fine. Got flashlights, lots of candles and batteries for a radio.

Mandatory evacuation means "leave if you feel like it"?

Candles are hard to light under water.

My worry is that I have a gargantuan version of a giant oak, a protected tree, that is next to driveway with a large hangover of branches over my car. So what do I do park it on the street. I don't use my garage anymore.

There's still plenty of debris that can fly off of it and other trees or rooftops.
My move during really bad weather was always to find a parking garage. Whether it be commercial or business just stick it on the 2nd level.

its a little different down here. We get summer storms 3-4 times a week that can have 50 mph winds. Now they last 30 minutes or so but we are used to it.

In our area they are talking 60 mph winds. No real storm surges. If I Have to evacuate to some high school Gym, I'm there for days. I'm prepared to be without power for at least a week at home. We also have dogs. We have neighbors to share stuff with. No elderly. No medical issues. No kids. Full tanks of gas in all cars. Plenty of food and water. Backup power for phones. We don't need rescuing.
