Be safe over there guys. Can’t imagine the force of such a hurricane.
That's what I saidIt’s the most accurate measure of the intensity of the storm. Think of a whirlpool: the stronger the ‘vacuum’ in the middle, the faster and stronger the swirl because that’s where the water wants to go. If the pressure at the bottom decreases (you pull the plug or the dam opens it’s gates) the whirlpool gets even stronger and bigger because it’s all driven by pressure differential.
So here the pressure is lowest inside the eye and that’s where all the air goes and the lower the pressure inside the eye the more force exerted and hence the more wind is created (except here you have air going upwards into the low pressure area).
Sorry Bill.That's what I said
The eye has been going over Abaco. They're going to be getting hit by the other side of the eye wall soon.Jesus that's rough. Hope they'll be ok. How long is this supposed to last?
Thoughts and prayers
Feck.The eye has been going over Abaco. They're going to be getting hit by the other side of the eye wall soon.
The hurricane is moving at only 3 mph, which is literal walking pace.
What a legend. He will probably feed more survivors than most regional governments with his charity kitchens.Tweet

Nassau was spared. You can actually watch the hurricane pass by along the horizon from the Nassau Harbor webcam.Damn. I have holidays booked for Nassau in October
I really hope mother nature spare them and it isn't as atrocious as it might be
Yikes, that doesn’t sound pleasant. How does that work? You drive buses/vans back up?McMaster just ordered the whole of the SC coastline to begin evacuations at noon tomorrow. There's always the possibility that me and other coaches with CDL licenses will get called up to go down and help drive people up. That'll be a fun trip if it happens.
Take the school district buses (which technically belong to the state) down there in a big convoy, load folks up, then drive them up here to the upstate and drop them off at shelters and schools converted into shelters.Yikes, that doesn’t sound pleasant. How does that work? You drive buses/vans back up?
Kemp just ordered mandatory evacuation of all Georgia counties east of I-95 starting tomorrow. Thankfully I have my place of business to crash in if shit hits the fan.McMaster just ordered the whole of the SC coastline to begin evacuations at noon tomorrow.

Yep, it's just a hoax, nothing real about it...SC too...
Hope you guys are all ok too.
Storms are getting worse every year.
But there is no climate change.
Now at 915 mb so getting slightly weaker. We’ll see once it moves away from the Bahamas if it intensifies again. Still a massive storm.The pressure is 911 mb now and cat 5, 185 mph, moving at west at 7 mph
