Hurricane Florence and the US East Coast

[Thalstan]

I live in DE...where if you can’t take a few feet of rain as a joke, you should not live here...

Seriously, the major thing I need to do is trim one tree and stay inside

4 ft of rain is a lot...but it only has to go 1 mile south and 50 ft down to hit the tidal basins where I live. I am more concerned about my neighbor who lives 10 ft below my house’s grade and is is only 5 ft above the level of the swale. We may be filling sandbags with those two if things get rough for them.

Luckily for me no hurricanes come off of Lake Superior.

No, just freezing, entombing snow right?

 

[Thalstan]

At least they measure it in feet, not meters....

As with last year anyone living within the effected areas if you are within driving distance of Georgia for a shelter area let me know, my guest rooms are always open.

 

[Bambooza]

Sweet!

Smack right into best Carolina!

Should I do a live stream when it hits?

I think most people would like a live stream of you anyways but if this what it takes to watch our glorious leader, eat, sleep and take a shower then by all means.

Was looking at the weather map someone linked ealier and noticed something rather large off the west coast USA...

 

[ShakyWater]

I think that's a rare van gogh.

Don't forget the milk and bread.

Milk sandwiches are reserved for when we see snow flakes

@Montoya and anyone else in NC

You're not wrong

 

[DarthMunkee]

If I wasn't going to be out of town for this one, I would say all you NC-based TESTies should come out to GSO for a hurricane party.

Huh, as a snack after dispersing the snowflakes, or do you hand load them as 12 gauge less than lethal rounds to disperse the crowds of snowflakes?

Yes

 

[Ammorn]

Guys, just shoot the hurricane and kill it.

Mandatory evacuations for zone A flood areas in Norfolk/Virginia Beach

Here in NJ we've had almost a week of rain and it's supposed to continue at least until Friday. If Florence comes up here we're gonna go underwater regardless of whatever the winds are. Is pretty serious. They still don't know what the track will be past Thursday, but someone is gonna get lots of water at the least.

you live in Jersey? What exit? (ha ha, I used to live off 117 off the Parkway).

The only time my parents basement flooded there was in a 1999 Hurricane...looking it up, it must have been Floyd...the day before my sister's wedding, lol!

I demand the master bedroom, that waterbed is comfy.

Not sure about the mirror on the ceiling.

Come on, its not like its a 1 way glass mirror with a camera behind it.

Possibility of Florence becoming a Cat 5 today.

Yeah, this is a serious event for the coastal area, but with winds that strong, there could be damage further inland where I am.
