I’m interested in storm pics from Merritt Island.
If you find any, please post them.
That place looks like a nightmare even with Cat 1 ‘cane conditions.

Matthew Brings Out the Worst, even though Fla Spared the Worst
Nature wins in Florida but the storm has brought out the worst
First the 50 mile bust on my part is a HUGE. I defied alot of my own preaching, when i bought the inland Euro over 167 years of history. The streak continues, that within 75 miles of Cape Canaveral , there have been no major hits since 1851
Second. The Lunacy of people thinking the government is ramping up data and making the storm worse is about as nutty as you can get. First of all I have no idea how anyone at NHC feels about climate change since no one uses any of that in their forecasts. Second suppose they did have an agenda. why would they issue an overhyped forecast only to suffer the pain of a huge bust. You think people are thankful this morning? No , they are demanding explanations for why the space coast is not a ghost! Its like with Gloria in 1985, a major hurricane but because NYC was spared the worst, it was overblown. The Danger here though is that people further north are likely to get it bad or worst and may let down. The storm is over the water longer now and it doesnt care what it did before.
Third. So I used Lunacy as the word for people thinking NHC is hyping the data. I dont know what to use for anyone that tried to use Hermine as an example of climate change and now this. THE STORM WEAKENED AND MISSED If thats climate change, lets have more of it. In fact this is not unlike Irene which was hyped as the great example of global warming
The only thing, the bad and the good that this proves is that nature , not man is in control. We can only get up after what ever happens and fight harder to be right tomorrow. But here is the crucial difference. Off the bat I see the error. What stings more is that I defied my own long standing ideas. But I see that.
I dont think this storms intensity before was an overhyped gvt conspiracy nor is it any example of some climate change apocolypse
If anything the opposite
