The latest track is out and the storm is definitely not going to hit us with hurricane force winds. It is now some 90 miles east of us and heading north-northwest at 11 miles an hour. It is hitting the sister islands with hurricane winds up to 80 miles an hour but here on Grand Cayman so far our gusts are just 30-40 mph. The closest point of approach on its current path and speed will be 61.2 miles away and that will happen around 1:30 a.m. our time. Every so often we hear a gust but nothing like what we heard last year with Dean and what we expect to hear later as the storm gets closer. Louie got bored and so we let him out to explore. Gypsy is fascinated by him but Ginger is keeping her distance and hissing whenever he comes close. he is back in his room right now crying through the door. He is on a special diet and so we cant let him get to the girls food and we don't want him using their kitty litter. As we approach 8 p.m. here on the Island there is rain and wind outside but full power and water to our neighborhood. we had a great dinner of beef and broccoli with pasta and are watching Stephanie's DVD's of season nine of Friends. Will try and post late tonight as the storm increases to give everyone a feel for what is going on.
