Florence

[dodint]

As has been the case all summer, Pennsylvania is going to get soaked.

Yeah. The complaint probably looks petty in comparison to what they're about to get in NC (qualification: landfall is occurring in the county I was born and spent half my life in) but Pennsylvania has been absolute shit this summer. A microcosm of that is we got the remnants of TD Gordon and it rained continuously from Friday night till mid day today. What was supposed to be a nice day tomorrow is now, haha, more rain in the morning. It's my last track day of the year and I made the mistake of looking at the forecast and thinking it was worth a damn. It's not.

And now, Florence will be here at the end of the weekend, to boot. I moved away from PA for a reason and I'm starting to get the itch again.

I will be sharpening my chainsaw today. Just watched a latest forecast and it's looking like it may turn a bit south toward SC. Well, at least we're insured.

[sandydandy]

Be safe, Cam. Good luck!

While I'm sorry it's turning your way, Cam... I'm super glad it's turned south, I didn't need a hurricane right now

Hm, while I'm thankful we're seemingly out of the direct path, it seems to be making a loop around, which depending on the birth of the storm, could mean lots of water. This will be fun...

How's your roof?

[dodint]

Given a particularly intense wind ridge the NE quadrant of the storm is generating 83ft waves. That's astounding.

[Cam]

Are you talking to me? Secure for now, but that don't mean shit when the winds are 100+ mph. As I said, there are a few very large trees within striking distance of our house. That's the only thing I'm really worried about.

Not good, which is why I want it no where near me. Moving into a new place next weekend, thankfully.

Kansas City doesn't get hurricanes...

Kansas City doesn't get hurricanes...

Give it time....


We've officially gone into Hurricane/Disaster mode at work. Got my FEMA and Homeland Security pass, which is cool to say, but doesn't actually mean shit for me. Since I just go into the office like any other day.


Hopefully Florence fucks off, but it's looking like we may get a small piece of it.

Worst part is, our market's northern edge is Myrtle Beach, and the latest model shows it essentially going right through Savannah. Which would be about 60% of our overall market.

Cell towers and hurricanes are a battle for the ages. #IrmaWasFun #FML
