It is 2PM. Hurricane Ike is 120 miles away, having traveled 90 miles over land. The winds have slowed from 100 MPH to 60 MPH. The rain started 1 hour ago - it is just another rainly day so far. I've done my shopping - got a little wet. Ike is traveling at 16 MPH, so we have about an hour before the edge of the hurricane reaches us.
It is now 6PM. Ike is passing on the east side. it is 90 miles away (70 miles to the east), and the winds have slowed to 45 miles perhour. It is moving north at 20 MPH. All we have is light rain now. Ike was a Category 5 hurricane when it reached land, but now it's not even a category 1.
