I've wanted for a long time to experience a hurricane for myself, and I've decided I want to go directly towards it should one make landfall this year. Very tricky and last-minute concept, but throwing caution to the wind sounds exciting for me :P
Of course, I would have to stay a few miles inland to eradicate the concern over surge, and take emergency measures should anything take me by surprise.
You have to be careful with these things. Most of the action really is at the coast but flooding still can be significant inland and so are the winds in certain storms. Ive always wanted to Hurricane chase but I'll just let them come to me.
Yes, I understand I have to know what I'm doing. But in order to eliminate or reduce the risk, one has to know what they're doing when doing storm chasing of any kind. You also don't have to hurricane chase, since you live in an area that actually has risk to being hit by tropical cyclones. I don't. I have to travel many hundreds of miles to see one.
