Will the Oil Spill reach Destin, Florida by June 20th?




.


Please take the time to answer this with A LOT of detail (I will read it all). This is very important. Pictures, maps,videos would be great, too. I will be going on vacation in Destin. If the oil does decide to go there, what are some other great vacation spots? We surely want to go to a CLEAN beach. We also plan on doing water sports like parachuting ,jet skiing, ocean trampoline, ETC. Please let me know! :)
( not parachuting, PARASAILING, sorry.)



Answer
We were in Destin for 4 days and left on May 31. All beaches from Pensacola to Destin were clean, no oil touch yet. However, from today news:
June 2, 2010 - 11:30 a.m.
(From Okaloosa County Emergency Management Officials)
An oil sheen is now reported to be 9.5 miles off shore of Pensacola. Pensacola is about 50 miles to Destin. Current forecast indicate NO oil in the Destin/Okaloosa area through Saturday. HOWEVER, please keep in mind that trajectory forecasts change daily.

So depending the wind, it could come to the shore sometime....in June or July
Good luck,

Brian

Answer
My boys, 13 and 9, HATE to play outside, but we also live in Florida and while not the hottest state very humid and my 13 yr old has allergies. I try very hard to get them out for at least an hour on the weekends, do wish it was more since nowadays, PE is an option in middle school and elemetary they only get it 1-2 times/week (what a joke right) Unfortunately they do like those damn video games but I limit their time, but I also don't force them to go outside, Im 36 and while I played alot outside when I was young, I want them to have their own personalities, not mine. But we try to keep them active on the weekends, bowling, putt putt. When I do get them out they ride their bikes, and pretty much run around with the neighbor kids. And actually, the 9 year old is a straight monkey...loves the trees.
