Has anybody been at JRTC and been hit by a hurricane?

I kinda feel like hurricane Nate snuck up on us. Anyways, I'm just a slightly concerned family member. Have a great weekend everybody!

I was there this past June. They won't keep your family member in the box if it's seriously life threatening. They have shelters that they can get to in a reasonable amount of time.

They should be fine. I live east of Ft. Polk (central Mississippi) and all we got was a little rain. Not much at all. Nate hit the coast and immediately headed northeast missing all but the coasts of Mississippi and Louisiana. Alabama bore the brunt of the storm.

Having grown up in south Louisiana I can tell you based on the size and intensity of this storm and where it made landfall, JRTC got about as much rain as a typical summer thunder shower. Nothing to worry about.
