I think people are storm weary to some extent. I know Texas is concentrating on helping out the evacuees and getting the kids into schools. So we are still focused on the aftermath of Katrina. And I think after Katrina Ophelia doesn't seem like such a threat (which she could be down the road). Therein lies the danger. If she strengthens she could become a threat and people may not be ready. I also don't think people pay much attention to TS and Cat 1 hurricanes. They tend to pay more attention if the hurricane becomes major. I think the NHC is doing the best they can in forecasting this storm but she's tricky. No, you don't worry too much. Never hurts to be prepared.

When in doubt, take the word of the National Hurricane Center
