Anything from mass casualties to a power outage.....I'm about ready to add it to my list of words that I cant stand because the media abuses them.

I live in zone a and had more surge last week during the new moon. I didn’t evacuate so I guess that makes me a snowflake.

KD in CA Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 Easy to mock the Weather Channel, but this is friggin cool: https://mobile.twitter.com/blkahn/status/1040306476273868800/video/1 1
Boca BIlls Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 Funny watching people complain that they had to evacuate. If it was really had and they weren't forced they would complain about not being evacuated. With humans today you are damned if you do and damned if you dont.
Pete Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 My friends are getting married in October, and we bought tickets April to Yankees-Red Sox Tuesday. We are rolling 24 deep. Right now it is looking like whatever is left of Florence will be dumping on NYC. Oh well, it will be a wet adventure at the very least!

On Monday night the plans for evacuation were in place...those plans changed by Tuesday afternoon.Obviously,the gov't knew this storm was not going to stay on a Cat 4 level.CL/PI has been evacuated for lesser storms...

Per the news just a few minutes ago the outer Banks will be open to tourists on Sunday. Friends in Wilmington and down where the brunt of the storm hit are already on the streets and stores back open to move on with life. Hocus pocus, good job media! One day you'll be news!

I wouldn't count on it. I cant speak for anyone but myself, but the damage they've brought upon themselves over the past several years due to completely biased reporting has caused me to lose all faith in objective reporting.

Ugh. Reminds me of the time the report was in the boat, and two people walked on the water behind her. Watch this guy fight the winds as two people stroll behind him.

boyst Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 I'm about 140 miles away from the eye. Breeze. A little bit of drizzle at best every now and again. I'm outside working. Haven't even got damp.
