I am preparing a dual thread with data for both storms. It will be up shortly.

A local NBC newscaster said this morning that they had received complaints from business owners (condo rental agencies I'm sure) along the AL coast because all the coverage of the storm(s) is "scaring away holiday business". The newscaster made it clear that they are in the business of keeping the public informed for their own safety, first and foremost, when it comes to hurricanes. You could tell by his tone that he was personally a bit ticked by the complaints of them doing their job of informing the public!

I'm all for business, but I'm fairly sure which agency is bi**hing the loudest and I was glad to hear NBC15 fight back.

Anyway...just found that interesting. Back to, hopefully unnecessary, storm preps. Starting with filtering and storing/freezing water. I like using large freezer bags... do they leach like the plastic jugs?
