Hurricane Dana



The eye of Hurricane Dana was coming our way towards Las Olas Saturday morning with a landfall of around 3pm. The high Cat. 2/3 storm with gusts of 130mph is expected to retain it's strength building up a large storm surge. Everyone was running around hysterically preparing for the storm and heading to higher ground. We at the Sun-Sentinel were calm and collected wearing our flip flops and shorts in Deerfield Beach putting out the newspaper.

THIS IS JUST A TEST.....

Every year a group of us meet to have a hurricane dry run as if a storm was coming our way. We do everything to put out a newspaper to troubleshoot possible problems in the process. We found a few problems, but IT was there to help us solve them.

Frank..not sure if he's praying this is over soon or asleep?

Don't trip on the cords.
