Well, mostly pay attention and stay away from the coast where the eye comes ashore.
For a lot of people, who've been through this many times before, they're more of an annoyance, kinda like crowds at Mardi Gras season.
For instance, I was headed out to throw an additional, probably unnecessary line on my
boat, was met at the Interstate with bumper to bumper traffic (going the opposite way) and said 'f--- it', came home, cranked my little 3 kw
generator to make sure it worked, slacked 3 ropes holding the tarp over one of the
boats off, and went back to working on the latest
project.
They probably seem scarier seen from a distance, either in experience or actual mileage .
