Hurricane season is June 1, to November 30.
Good Luck To All This Year.
Could this get loose and devastate a county?
Asking for Amish friend.
Cat 6 storms presumably now a real geoengineering possibility.
There were two sets of blast doors anchored to the three foot thick concrete.
The pressure changes were ripping the doors out by the casings from the concrete. We drilled holes through, fished coat hanger wire through, then up to cables to anchor the doors to the floor. This was in the FAA radar building, so the floor panels came up to get at wiring.
The building was shaking and the wind noise was so great we had to yell at one another to be heard.
We were in teletype communication with technicians in the radar dome on Mount Rota, the most exposed point on the Island. The geodesic dome was built of 1/8th inch fiberglass. It was quiet in there with no evidence of a storm going on. The brick building next to the dome was destroyed.
The thing to be in is Buckminster Fuller's invention, not a bunker during high winds.
BTW, the anemometer blew off the roof at around 200 MPH.
If there are any dumpsters in the area, and cars, trucks, etc., chain them together.
Dumpsters were rolling around destroying stuff, cars and 18 wheeler flatbeds and other trailers blown around and flipped over, metal buildings completely gone to the concrete pad.
No food, running water or electricity when I left the island 2 weeks later.
Of course. I was expecting this. We cannot escape the Global-Warming hoax.
These pinheads don’t know how long it will be before power is restored. That is entirely independent of the amount of damage. Why must they state the duration? Answer is to maximize the fear. That leads to “justification” of more endeavors (money) in the future.
Hurricane Michael which was officially a cat 4 until insurance claims were mostly settled then upgraded to cat 5 had windspeeds, at least in gusts, in excess of 219 mph. At that speed the instruments at TAFB failed. And it tore off roofs, some at ground level. Many buildings were shattered. There are many vacant tracts in Panama City where buildings or groups of buildings once stood.
When was the last time a “more than Cat 5” hurricane hit Florida? He says “more and more.” But I can’t recall even one.
Just like Covid, they should try to create the real world conditions to make a Cat 6 actually happen......just so they will know what to do if it ever happens.
