Carol_Hill Traveler Joined: Aug 2000 Posts: 82,737 Central Florida!	Yes, I would check to see if you can switch to a Sunday arrival. Here is the latest from Storm Carib, as far as closest point of approach. "Results for St.Maarten/St.Martin (18.05N, 63.12W): The approximate Closest Point of Approach (CPA) is located near 18.3N, 62.5W or about 45.8 miles (73.8 km) from your location. The estimated time of when the center of the storm will be at that location is in about 53 hours and 1 minute from now (Saturday, October 21 at 5:36PM AST)." Carol Hill
