IKE dips North sparing Florida and Royal Harbor

All we got from IKE was a small 2 foot rise in our high tide level. as it passed a couple hundred miles to the south of us. Residents of Royal Harbor closely monitored this storm as it was origionally projected to pass through southern Florida. A dip south caused by the strong Bermuda high and a lot of wind sheer kept the Hurricane on a SW track and over and through Cuba then across to the Gulf where it took a bee line for Galviston and Houston. Another miss and now we are over the half way mark in the 2008 hurricane season.
