We are all thinking about our friends on the Yucatan. How is it going with the Tropical storm warning and hurricane watch?

Things are still ok. Some confusion about which way Ivan wants to go but then that is normal. Although science has come a long way it still is not perfect. Waves are high and strong...schools close, dry law in effect in town but not in hotels, islands evacualted like Cozumel, Holbox and Isla Mujeres...also some lowlying areas out by Puerto Juarez, hotels in the hotel zone all boarded up but not evacuated, chance of the airport closing at 10 a.m.
