MIAMI (AP) - More than 1 million people were told to evacuate the Atlantic coast Monday and NASA all but abandoned Cape Canaveral as Hurricane Floyd, one of the most powerful storms ever to threaten the U.S., charged toward Florida with potentially catastrophic 155 mph winds. "It's scary. It's very scary," said Gov. Jeb Bush, who declared a state of emergency Monday night. "Andrew hit Miami in the middle of the night and it was haunting. This is as strong and ... three times bigger." Hurricane Andrew smashed into South Florida in 1992, causing $25 billion in damage, killing 26 people and leaving 160,000 homeless. Forecasters said Floyd would brush past the Bahamas overnight and could hit land in the next couple of days between central Florida and South Carolina. They predicted it was capable of causing enormous damage.
