residents, some were flying to other parts of the bahamas. most of the bahamas has been under a hurricane warning. florida has been under the threat of this. people who could afford to leave didn't know where to go to. most people we talked to said while they were going to take the storm seriously, they were going to ride it out in their homes. for people who live along the coast, it's too late to evacuate now. the winds are picking up and it's dangerous. you wonder how these people are going to get through in the hours ahead. certainly this storm is much worse than anybody has ever gone through here because it's the most powerful storm since hurricane andrew. it's the worst category 5 since hurricane andrew, and hurricane andrew is one of the most destructive of all time. i coincidentally enough was on a family vacation when hurricane andrew hit. i remember the absolute devastation it inflicted on the bahamas.
