Augusta ga area here, this thing is gonna slap the poo poo out of us and this area has 0 prep for it so this should be fun.

Have a friend in show dogs that stayed in st Pete because noone will take that many dogs. Hopefully they all make it.

Impressed by who ever installed that. Waves are hitting it head on and it still seems to be going on strong.

Pretty sure that house isn't gonna make it though. Seems to be having a very rough time of things. :(

Edit: ...and camera just randomly cut out. It did it's best.

That horseshoe beach cam is a solid lil dude. It's taken a very significant number of big waves head on and it's stayed stationary and kept its runtime. Salute lil dude. I'm working from home today so at least if the 'cane kills me I will be at home with my dog and not at the firm.

I can't tell you how many times I've driven this causeway and thought wow, sure would suck if there was even a tiny bit of storm surge. Pinellas/Tampa Bay are truly hosed if a cat3+ ever hits head on.

So when it does a loop de loop out into the ocean, is it gonna get stronger and slam back into Florida again or what?

Newest discussion:
Dodged another rapid intensification bullet as it made landfall while it was preparing an eyewall replacement which means cat 3 effects
2+ day simulations are finally agreeing it will not turn back at the US, and will not likely turn back into a hurricane in the atlantic
Which also means it's probably gonna park a big destabilized area of tropical storm off the coast that will gently caress with North Carolina and Bermuda till the end of the week

...good. Theyre not wholesome farmers. They're not so much the salt of the earth as they are salting the earth. If Taylor County, Florida is wiped off the map, the map is cleaner. Inshallah.

well statistically you'd get more bad people if the hurricane wiped new York city off the map. so any good stable person clearly should want that

lol, was skimming through this and around 3:41/3:42 whatever group was chasing the eye is pissed because there wasn't enough damage for them to record because it was "only a cat 2" at landfall and the surge wasn't as high as forecast.

Lost power for about 5 hours, but got it back around 3:30. My immediate area didn't get anything nasty.

At least one dead in Lowndes County (Valdosta), though. It got hit pretty hard as did the counties around it.

"already" is maybe not the qualifier I'd use for a cat 1 storm that is 120 miles inland and hasnt sucked on the teat of the ocean for 8 hours.
