We also arrived shortly after Irma.
Definitely busier than I expected.

My wife just has a distain for Atlanta, and due to our location, going down through alabama allows less backroads and more cruise control.I mean it's not that difficult to drive through Atlanta, just pick a time between 2:00 AM and 2:15 AM and you should not have any issues
That's prepared somewhere in Lakeland and shipped to your local Publix....

Weve been to Atlanta once to visit the aquarium.. For us its easier to go down 65 till it splits off for mobile, then catch a secondary highway and enter florida that way vs heading twords atlanta. about 30 extra miles to the trip, depending on traffic, quicker, and i dont have to hear the complaining about atlanta.

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.
And cut the price to $6.00.
They learned from the backlash.

I believe you. His staff is probably swamped with hurricane prep that they just haven't gotten around to posting the EO.
Nice to know that route up north.
Proof for those not glued to the Weather Channel.

Its a nice route. We live about an hour south of Nashville itself> between Huntsville and Nashville exactly. SO for us, its easier to go he 3 miles out to 65, then take all the back roads to get to I40 in Manchester, and out through Chattanooga etc. We did it last march for my birthday, and it skirts all large cities, and well theres a whataburger you can see from the interstate in Birmingham, so that sealed the deal.
You had me at Whataburger...
The storm is projected to hit Monday. If you can't extend your time off work past that, then you'll need to cancel.

Monday at 6pm might be risky. If the current track holds or stays 50 miles North or South, I think the Airport will be closed at 5pm or earlier. For Irma they closed at 5pm on the 9th, and did not open until the 12th.
