NHC has it barely Cat 3 making landfall in the big bend of FL. That’s hardly Armageddon and the big bend is still kinda sparsely populated up in the coastal area.

[tgull]

It's going to be a Cat 4. Take action now!

VDM reports a curved band in the NE quadrant. Core formation is most likely underway. Recon should make another pass and we'll see how quickly that is evolving while they're down there:

how can we make money with this information

[cleatus]

Gulf side geezers got no idea. Then they'll bitch about the young not helping their elders.

Dude it’s every man and woman for himself at the bagging stations down here.

[tgull]

I always feel melancholy when these mega storms always hit the least densely populated areas. I mean Miami 1 time, come on.

[limitles]

Oooooooh, wind and rain. Run Floridians run, better yet stay.

Oooooooh, wind and rain. Run Floridians run, better yet stay.

Sadly many use a hurricane as an excuse to be Les for the day, i.e get drunk off their ass and show the world how stupid they are by posting online.

But unlike Les they will go back to their normal life while he just repeats the cycle daily. Too bad Canada has such a poor health care system that they don’t offer help to lifelong alcoholics that may or may not fuck their dog.

[Daly]

Just starting to get windy and rain heavy in spurts here in Palm Beach. Should make for a few interesting days.

[Krypt]

this thing could actually be serious I think

[garrett]

i'm an hour North of West Palm Beach we didn't really get bad weather, East side of the storm

[tgull]

I AM PREDICTING RAPID INTENSIFICATION WITH THIS STORM, 145 MPH WINDS. DIRECT HIT FOR TALLAHASSEE. UNPRECEDENTED TREE DAMAGE TO HISTORIC LIVE OAKS. POWER OUT FOR WEEKS, GIVEN THIS IS THE STATE CAPITAL EXPECT STATE WIDE SERVICES DISTRIBUTED. MOSQUITO BORNE ILLNESSES TO OVERWHELM HOSPITALS. WATER POLLUTED, SCHOOLS WILL BE CLOSED FOR WEEKS. MARTIAL LAW TO BE INSTATED IN RURAL AREAS. HUMAN SUFFERING TO IMPOVERISHED AREAS TO RIVAL KATRINA LIKE STANDARDS. DO NOT VENTURE OUTSIDE DURING THE STORM, FLYING DEBRIS WILL KILL YOU UPON IMPACT. DO NOT USE A GENERATOR INSIDE YOUR HOME! STAY SAFE.

[Sheesfaced]

Helene being a bitch and not intensifying as rapidly as predicted.

[tgull]

Latest VDM is closed eyewall. Off to the races now
