Same to you. I'm in an Evacuation Zone C in Manatee County, so far only A has been mandatory here. Not really worried about water, but a direct hit of those winds could do some damage.

Worst part is losing power. We lost power for three days when we lived in DeLand when a hurricane brushed against us, and I almost reverted to Lord of the Flies. I've since bought a portable generator, so we'll see if that keeps me sane.
