Vox Nihili posted:Even a pretty big category 5 wouldn't knock down skyscrapers or anything. No, but it will hollow out the interior by blowing through most windows and trashing everything out the other side. This also doesn't factor in the damage of the sustained flooding to foundation supports whilst under 110+mph winds for several days at a time. Fall over, no, but bend and tilt? It's possible (still unlikely, but it's 2018 and lmao at impossibility).

People thinking that category is the measure of the strength of a storm: https://twitter.com/Lixen123/status/1039996689103441920?s=20 https://twitter.com/craigruss372/status/1039996912848588800 https://twitter.com/laurentiius/status/1039988693048541184 https://twitter.com/angela214/status/1039992837666951168 https://twitter.com/amar71168/status/1039992404177289216 Meteorologists: https://twitter.com/pennlive/status/1039995846664876033 https://twitter.com/mark_baden/status/1039972693838315525 On next weeks episode I will discuss people who hear that a storm has slowed down before hitting the land, and think that’s a good thing

Lastgirl posted:*shuffles scientific papers scattered across the room, unable to keep tabs on the whole thing* weirdly the scale is only for North Atlantic hurricanes I've no idea how the Pacific does typhoons, maybe we can get together and have some sort of METRIC rough estimate as to a storm's power output per hour or something

but yeah sandy hit nyc as essentially category 1 (it was extratropical at that point but whatevs) and we got turbo-hosed by it anyway the problem here is going to be the stalling on the coast for at least a day dumping wind and rain on the same area for hours and hours on end

H.P. Hovercraft posted:they use wind speed because that's what buildings are designed to withstand and the range of wind speeds for each category is based on expected damage All I am saying is people are going to die in floods because this scale doesn’t take that into account and they assume it is the deadliness scale
