deep flooding that forced people out of at least 50 apartments and houses in the Fort Lauderdale area. About 5 inches (13 centimeters) of rain fell overnight in that area, according to the National Weather Service. Scattered gas shortages were reported but Bush said the state had a 10-day supply. Traffic jams clogged highways Friday as people fled the west coast, but state troopers told the governor most of the congestion was due to accidents. Monroe County issued an evacuation order Saturday for all residents of the Keys, connected to each other by a single highway. But some residents stayed put. Andy Vogel mowed his lawn Saturday in Marathon and said he had no intention of leaving unless the Keys appear to be in line for a direct hit. "Guess I can make it look good before it gets trashed," he said of his lawn. In the past, many residents of the free-spirited Keys ignored evacuation orders. But after Katrina's death and destruction in Louisiana and Mississippi, Key West streets were nearly empty Friday and plywood covered most windows. Hospitals and nursing homes had contingency plans ready in case Wilma headed their way. Officials want to avoid the deaths of trapped patients and residents that Katrina caused. At 2 p.m. (1800 GMT), Wilma's eye was inland over northeastern Yucatan, centered just west of Cancun and about (660 kilometers) southwest of Key West. It was drifting northward but was expected to turn toward the northeast and could hit Florida on Monday, the hurricane center said. Computer models still were unclear as far as what part of Florida would be affected by Wilma.
