This graphic from the national weather service has downgraded the wind from Hurricane winds to just sustained winds. Honestly...like anything else there are multiple reports on what can happen. The only thing we REALLY know is that we ARE going to get SOMETHING. So better to be prepared.

I am hoping we will be able to get out on Sunday morning then as it looks like it is not going to hit us until Sunday afternoon.

Get out of where?
Also, have you seen the size of the hurricane? Crap hits hundreds of miles from the center.

There are no cancellations SO FAR from Southwest. They are concerned right now with VA this weekend. But things could change so I am just keeping a watch on their website.

No need to cry. Eat some peanut butter sandwiches and have sex all day.
Believe me, if I was home all day with my husband I would do that. Maybe even cover him in peanut butter.

There are still many scenarios. We are days away. How it hits NC will play a HUGE role on what happens here.

Unfortunately even if you are flying out Sunday Morning the storm is HUGE. I am predicting that starting in Saturday there are going to be LOTS of flight cancellations all along the east coast in preparation. Most flights follow a similar flight pattern no matter where they are headed. Be prepared to have to postpone your trip. Even today due to Thunderstorms in other airports there are TONS of delays in airports that are not even experiencing the storms yet, just imagine that with hurricanes.

Everyone is urging me to try and book earlier in the day but I don't think that would help. If they cancel, I would be out more money then.
Ugghh....mother nature-lol!!!

How will you be out money if they cancel? I think they are obligated to credit you, no?

Do you know what their policy is with flights that need to be cancelled due to weather. I believe if you flight is cancelled (as long as it wasn't a special type of ticket) you are able to get a refund. As long as you aren't flying out to meet another obligation (as in flying to a cruise port) the only thing you would be out would be the vacation time. It does suck though. 
ETA: The entire travel industry is, no doubt, on alert and have processes in place for weather emergencies and I am sure you will get your money back no matter what. You only lose the time.

If I change my flight I would have to pay more, no? I remember once I was told I could get an earlier flight and it would be $50/pp.
