Same here. We regularly get the same winds you mention here in the mountains of NC. Never any real problems. This fact, did not, however, prevent people from descending like vultures on every WalMart, grocery store, and convenience store in sight, and emptying them out. People have no perspective. Also, can someone tell me why when a big storm threatens, people rush to buy perishable items (milk, bread, eggs) first? I find it odd because these items will be spoiled first, especially if the power fails. Seems like canned foods and nonperishable items would be what people would stock up on, but the exact opposite seems to be true. You can live a long, long time without ever eating milk, bread, and eggs. In fact, your entire life
