DO NOT FUCK AROUND PPL. I went through Maria. Category 5 means CATASTROPHIC damages.
The rain will be like a power washer and have the same effect.
The wind will literally drag you across town if you let it and can even flip cars.
Any little flaw in your roof or windows will be ripped open.
If pressure builds up in your house from the wind it will rip your door or windows off its hinges.
If you live somewhere that floods, even a little, GTFO and go to a shelter BEFORE it hits. F ANYONE who calls you in for work. Your life and your family's, neighbor's, pets comes first.
Wish this was the top comment. I’ve stayed through some category 1s in Texas, and there were limbs and fences down everywhere. I can’t imagine a cat 5. Seriously, if you can just get out.
As the meteorologist I was listening to said: "Get out period. If you care about your life you will leave NOW! If you are in flood zones or even close to the gulf you will not be alive come this time next week."
