Southerners, what is your earliest Florida hurricane destruction memory? I definitely remember food drives for MONTHS after andrew. It was almost 9/11 and OJ levels of not being able to look away from the television.

Any livestreams of amateur storm chaser types putting their lives in danger for youtube fame? Or is that guy who got stranded during one of these last year and kept tweeting that his phone was about to die while other stormchasers mocked him for being an idiot for hours?

lol it's going to be stuck at 155 mph until landfall because the NHC hates Cat 5s. I don't understand the political benefit behind underrating tornadoes and hurricanes.

The political benefit is you can blame the unpredictability of nature, and say we need to move forward with investing in better instruments for storm predictions and then announcing a private-public partnership with SpaceX to launch weather satellites into the moon.

This semantics argument also illustrates why rating scales are generally a Bad Thing but kind of a necessary evil.

Floyd was another big one. That just wiped eastern North Carolina clean. Also flooded all the open air vats of bright pink antibiotic enhanced hog piss and poo poo and spread it all over the low lands. Spike in ten and twenty five year cancer rates? Couldnt be me!

People are really loving stupid and become hyperfocused on stuff like this, especially when everyone around them has the same focus. Can't panic about a cat 4 or all your bros will think you're a pussy. Same reason it's so loving hard to convince people that rain can be bad or that going out for a run in extreme heat is incredibly dumb. People are going to end up in houses that are underwater because making a nuanced evaluation of risk is too hard.

Any given location in Florida might need to evacuate once every five (?) years for a hurricane? Being gone for a few days twice a decade doesn't seem like that big of an ask if you're going to live with that kind of risk dangling over your head.

The relatives with two young children finally left sometime yesterday to Orlando. I was playing telephone with other family to get them out of there. Unfortunately some different family did stay but at least they don't have any small children. Good luck to those idiots.

Asking people to come to work to die from COVID was just another in a long sequence of steps normalizing dying at work. I've had managers order me to come to work when I lived two hours away and there was a foot of snow on the expressways. I told them to expect me in two days after I shoveled my way there by hand. actionjackson posted:NE eyewall is 192 mph holy gently caress Those are flight level winds but those are a sign of what's coming.
