Ugh, biking at the gym. Maybe I'll just drink instead.


And Saturday will be effed up. I need to get furniture for the townhouse.

The National Hurricane Center finally found a modern headline writer.

...GIANT EYE OF SERGIO DRIFTING SLOWLY OVER THE EASTERN PACIFIC...

Anyway, come on baby, we need the rain.

Sergio got a green card?

Can you deport a hurricane?

 

[highland145]

Can you deport a hurricane?

[IronWing]

Can you deport a hurricane?

Once it gets depressed.

GIANT EYE OF SERGIO DRIFTING SLOWLY OVER THE EASTERN PACIFIC...

Now if they will just name one Sauron, it would be a legendary headline.

Sister and Mom are in Mexico Beach. Have they left yet...hell no. Have they packed yet....eff that. Sis(?) gave Mom a valium so she'd stop stressing. WTF is wrong with my family? Possible 9' storm surge.

I told Mom that if they got washed away, my bro and I would happily spend all of her $$.

Maybe your sister and mom want to see if they can take the full 9'. Go big or go home.

Mom's 78 so.... TMI, TMI....


Now predicting cat 3 with 10-12' surge. They have to be gone by noon. Sis owns a jewelry/gift/stuff store...and no insurance because reasons. Plus there's a huge assed fishing boat that I guess is going to take a hit.

Ill give your mom a 10-12' surge.

*no I wont.

I don't know how you live in FL and don't have insurance. I hope all goes well.

Now a solid cat 4 with sustained winds at 140 MPH with gusts to 155, with the fast forward speed if your in the northeast quadrant that's 140 + 12 MPH. Jesus, if anyone's in the way of this beast GTFO ASAP.

That would be me. And we're still here in Tallahassee. Fun for all.

 

[daveybrat]

Holy crap, i never imagined it would strengthen so quickly and hit a category 4

Is Tallahassee far enough inland to be safe? it seems like you wouldn't get the direct storm surge (which is the worst part), but that's not a lot of distance for the winds to dissipate.

Stay safe, Allisolm.

Right? It really blew up. The NHC only started issuing advisories on the system 84 hours (3.5 days) ago. Michael has already shot well past the initial intensity forecast (it wasn't originally expected to even make hurricane status). Apparently that warm Gulf water has everything a growing tropical system could want.

(Meanwhile they've been tracking Leslie for two weeks, and she may go for another week yet!)

GL Florida, hope this is it for severe weather season for you. The Northeast will get it's turn in a few months.

I always head to weather.com to chuckle at their ridiculous headlines at times like these.
