Oh, sorry. So yeah, a storm is currently on its way to Florida, Category 4 last I heard.

Hopefully you are all safe.

It's calm in Broward, but expected to get nasty within the next three hours. If you're in Central Florida or near the coast, I'd advise being ready for the worst.

    This thing looks shitty and the eye looks like it might stay off the land so it could keep strengthening.

    Then I saw a model showing it making a loop and hitting Florida again?

    Matthew is a dick.

    I left work three hours early for seemingly nothing, feeling kind of dumb about that.

    People don't pay any attention when a certain death forecast is given by someone who is actually an expert on weather and it's forecasting-- Unless they watch the weather channel and get excited by the prospect of thundersnow.
    https://youtu.be/PdRWGMyeSYY

    So people don't listen to most tv meteorologists because they kind of scream and yell all the time and really enjoy weather.

    Instead they find someone like Shepard Smith and tell him "Hey can you just say everyone is going to die? Because if we put someone like Cantore on the air we can't make any promises about what the future holds."

    100+ casualties last I heard. Freeport is not doing too hot, either.


    Just started coming down hard in Coral Springs.

    Referring to areas subject to flash floods that had mandatory evacuation.

    So he's not completely wrong.

    For the longest time, Cantore was the family herald of ill tidings. He filmed a few blocks from our house during the '93 Mississippi flood, and he was back in town five years ago for the thundersnow.

    Northwest Broward and I'm hearing some wind and we're getting some rain, but it's not bad at all. South Florida missed this one. Though the past couple days have been hilarious, depressing, and infuriating all at the same time. I work at Costco and the amount of crap people were buying you'd think the world was coming to an end. "Hey, we live in hurricane alley and lets not prepare until the last possible fucking moment." Though it was kinda funny watching people argue over who was next to get water.

    A member of my college party-posse is currently in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

    When asked if he has provisions he replied that he has, "Tortilla chips, nacho cheese, chili and five bottles of vodka."

    Because I went to college with goblins.

    When I lived in Macon, GA we had heavy rains and flooding one spring in the mid 90s
    the Waffle House downtown was on kind of a higher bit of land, so there was this island in the middle of a lake that appeared overnight, crowned with a Waffle House that was open and operating
    People were running a small ferry system to get customers out there
