Hurricane Dorian

[utdalltheway]

Reports saying it could hit Florida as a cat 4 storm. The NY Post, not to be outdone, is saying cat 5.
It looks set to ruin a lot of long weekend plans in that area though, no matter what category it lands as.

Stay safe FL caftards.

 

[Grinner]

Doesn't this happen every year?

 

[utdalltheway]

Certainly seems like it.
And every time it’s hyped up to no end.
Time will tell.

 

[Billy Blaggs]

Hyped up because the one time they don't hype it will be the time it destroys houses etc. Preparation is key.

Stay safe guys !

 

[golden_blunder]

Stay safe guys

POTUS will have your backs, just mind the nuclear fallout when he nukes the storm

 

[golden_blunder]

Why would anyone live in Florida? Convince me @Florida Man

 

[Dr. StrangeHate]

I am rooting for the hurricane to hit Mar-a-lago.

And knowing Trump, he will get the Federal Gov't to pay for the repairs somehow. Its the Souther White House afterall.

He is gonna fleece the government for repairs regardless of whether it gets hit or not, that is a given. At least if it gets hit, it would be somewhat legitimate.

 

[senorgregster]

Surprised they haven't evacuated yet. The original cat1 prediction soon built to a 4 and it's stalling. 3 years in a row if a cat4 hits?

The Bahamas are going to get hit hard!

I could list many reasons but there is only one answer:

Perhaps he can get Mexico to pay for it as they seem to have escaped paying for the wall

@golden_blunder also, I live in Tampa, which is on the west coast of Florida. This hurricane shimdig sounds like a Miami problem.

Also, when is it supposed to hit? I didn't pay attention.

Perfect Florida man response

More likely Canada after the look the wife gave Justin.

Well, we do have a better standard of living than the Yanks these days and we're always willing to help out the less fortunate.

It's been possible for a few days it could get to 5, but a lot of the meteorologists have been playing it carefully. So much uncertainty on this one. Ryan Maue has been saying possible 5 for at least 2 days.

@Florida Man it's slowed down, we were due to get on Monday but looking more like Tue night. Euro and UK Met have been consistent for a while it will hit south Fl then turn North. Tampa is likely to get tropical wind/rain, east coast could be in for a very rough time as the north turn should take place before or just after landfall, then it will crawl north. It will become much more clear in next 24 hours.

Edit: Denis Phillps from ABC Tampa is "the" man to follow - he is on facebook.

My son and his girlfriend moved to Kissimme a few weeks ago for school. He's working 60-80 hours a week in the new Star Wars thing at Disney. Their mantra is "Disney never closes". I told him last night to not be afraid to tell his boss to feck off if they want him to come to work on Monday. Needless to say his mom and I are getting nervous. This looks to be a beast of a storm if it holds strength.

 

[prateik]

Is this one of those "wet" ones?

 

[olesmyhero]

Is it supposed to hit South Carolina at all? I’ll be in Charleston all week and would prefer if it didn’t.

 

[Ian Reus]

I could list many reasons but there is only one answer:

They've almost got as many subways in the world as Irish bars.

 

[Billy Blaggs]

That's a Publix sub. Far superior to Subway.

If it hits in northern Florida, or hits, goes inland, and then turns north, then Charleston will probably get very high tides and streets will be flooded. That city floods very easily.

There’s also some models showing it skirting up the coast, in which case Charleston would be much worse off.

They all look the same, loads of food stuffed in a roll.

 

[Billy Blaggs]

Publix only uses fresh stuff. There really is no comparison.

Publix subs are quite good

 

[Grinner]

Are the CNN anchors standing in puddles and pretending it's windy yet?

 

[Red Defence]

Can never get me laughin’ tackle around those things. Much prefer a fat sarni.

 

[VorZakone]

So do Miami residents have to leave their homes because of this? Genuinely curious because Miami always gets hyped as the place to be.

I get that Monday is a national holiday, but if there's a hurricane due, surely there is absolutely zero chance of the parks being open?

 

[Red Defence]

Parks might be open but if there’s a howling gale blowing and torrential rain then I can’t see many visitors wanting to wander around.

Yeah especially with Boars Head.

 

[shamans]

I could list many reasons but there is only one answer:

They have public all across NC and VA too now

 

[Organic Potatoes]

I could see ignoring potential hurricane catastrophes for the sake of the food in New Orleans, but not for a blasted chicken sandwich.
