    Considering I live in Charleston and all I ever hear about is Hurricane Hugo during hurricane season, reading something fun and different in regards to the storm will be a welcome change.

    As a survivor of a tornado in Redwood City, California, survivors of a hurricane would be even more exciting. Love that Honda on the front cover.
