How you and your family are safe Kabong.

*hope

He is 200 miles away from the main trouble, but he is a warrior.

So we shouldn't hope that he's safe?

What's your structure like Lyle, 1,2 story? Hurricanes are another reason I kept my crusty land line for back up. Cell towers go down quickly. I had a functioning land line for 2 days before it went down post Katrina. Sat in a closet trying to call every single person I knew for updates . Lets hope we get more push South for this ugly girl and the impact is lessened. Calm cool collected but head on a swivel Lyle..be safe!

No we should and I have. This is what he has told me.

[walrus]

Yeah I hope all u in the path are safe. I am still cleaning up from the tornado that started one mile down the road from me and gave us a direct hit. Neighbors lost roofs in a matter of seconds. You guys who gotta deal with this shit every year, damn I give u a lot of credit

Thanks brother. You should know I'll be safe. I'm going to make certain that the elderly in my neighborhood are all squared away with everything they need and I'm obviously going to be making sure pets are looked after too, don't want any of them left behind or outside....some people don't treat their pets like members of the family it's odd.

You want to know about my mansion? LMAO...it's just a simple ranch with a basement. I've got a radio, I've got lights, I've got batteries and water.....a glut of liquor ....so just beer and bud and I'll be set brother.


Like I said I'll probably just try and make sure my neighbors and their pets are well taken care of...wouldn't want anything to happen to them.

Looks like Cat 3 now. Still a major hurricane and a force to be reckoned with. The stall at the coast is likely to produce much damage there from storm surge and winds. After that it appears headed down to catch a little of South Carolina before weakening into Tropical Storm category. Keeping fingers crossed for further weakening off shore.

That's why the Outer Banks are there...The Graveyard of the Atlantic really slows down a lot of things

Saw this morning that Florence had weakened to a Cat 2.

Still a hurricane, but thankfully not the monster Cat 4 it had been just yesterday.

Hopefully some gusts will be the extent of it up your way. Prepare for tons of rain, though. This thing is taking its own sweet time.

Oh there's going to be rain alright.


So are the people of Puerto Rico upset at this at all?



That would irk me to no end

[TitoFan]

Those who know I imagine would be very upset. It all spirals down in a storm of finger-pointing and frankly, I just shut stuff off at that point.

Oh yeah. Sign me up for that job right away.

Could you just stay in the eye of the storm and walk the way it moves until it fizzles out?

In theory yes you could....not sure why you'd want to though

After a few one-hiitters, that's exactly what he'll be doing, trust me ☔🌿

[TitoFan]

Well.... the translational speed of a hurricane is typically about 15 mph, which is the equivalent of a pretty good sprint by a human being. So basically you'd just be keeping up by sprinting in the same direction the hurricane is moving.
But careful not to slow down, because that back wall is a bitch.
