I swear to all fuck I am at my wits end.

60% of my county is now under a mandatory evacuation because of Hurricane Matthew.

My mother has been fighting my, and my four siblings, recommendation that we get the fuck out of Dodge. I called her at 6:20 am and told her I was leaving with or   without her, so she agreed.

Her two big dogs and I have been sitting in my car for over an hour now

You're doing the right thing--even if she isn't. As a former FL resident, I understand the complacency of the people there, the "oh the TV people always exaggerate the danger" attitude. (My daughter actually said that to me today via IM-she still lives there).
But a Cat 4 storm is nothing to take lightly. And I'm glad you're sensible even if your mom is making things difficult. I hope you found somewhere safe and are currently hunkered down. (My daughter and her SO finally saw sense and boarded up their home.)
I'm keeping vigil here in TN via the Weather Channel. Please update when you can.

Stay safe. I'm sorry to hear about the stress you're going through. I hope you make it through okay.

*hugs* Stay safe. And try and resist the temptation to leave her in a deep swampy ditch.
