The Nasty Weather Thread

All’s well gents thanks we were actually in Biloxi at time and don’t usually sit up straight until they have an Alabama cone moving West. That thing built very fast. Florida took it right in the catchers mitt and probably the best place for it seeing aftermath.

Craziest shit this season is seeing first impact hurricane on the Mexico California boarder with family mite accustomed to rolling canyon fires and earthquakes. Mid season now, entire Gulf goes in 7day cycles of “checking the tropics”. Head on a swivel Tito it’ll be Fall and close to Thanksgiving in no time .

Can't come fast enough, my friend.

I should love September. It's the month of several family birthdays (wife, daughter, brother, late father). But DAMN... it's the month when these monsters take aim at Puerto Rico.

Hey @Spicoli How's Debby treating you? I hope not too badly. The hurricane winds are bad enough. This is a slow-moving, torrential-rain-dropping system.

Bud I'm at the point where I just turn off the news until anything at all hits the Gulf . The hysteria and guess work and the red cones starts as soon as something comes off of Africa now. Guess that's par for the course with mass media these days. Debby took a pretty early curve north for us here so all good. Now we just wait for the next . Keep your head on a swivel in PR bud.

Damn. Getting our ass kicked by Tropical Storm Ernesto. 5 am update should be coming up soon... but this shet feels like a hurricane already.

How are you holding up bud? Woke up this morning and saw it had kicked up to Cat 1 but thankfully took that northern route. Imagine powers out large scale at least Eastern PR, stay safe give us a shout when it settles.

Doing OK.

Yep. No power, and no telling for how long. Tired of this lousy infrastructure. Of course, the winds were higher than expected. Seemed like a Cat 1 even as it was brushing by us. I live on the northeastern point of the island. The best beaches, but a sweet spot for these damn systems.

At least it seems to be headed toward the middle of the Atlantic, so save for maybe Bermuda, it shouldn't hit anyone else.

Cringing because it's only August, and the really destructive hurricanes have always hit us in September.

Stay safe Tito. The infrastructure has never fully recovered. Sounds familiar locally. On a sidenote we actually lost power twice in the last week because of "a mylar balloon hits power line" incident. Actual small birthday or funeral balloons that were released. We're all fecked . I think we're good for another 2 weeks storm wise and hopefully you guys dry out quick. Hurricane season can make you feel like you're living in bi weekly segments just waiting for the next shoe to drop. But we carry on. Best to the family bud.
