Hurricane chaser and filmmaker Josh Morgerman hasn’t been heard from on Twitter for two days as he rode out Hurricane Dorian in Marsh Harbour, located on Grand Abaco Island in the Bahamas.

Morgerman’s last tweet was on Sunday, Sept. 1, prompting fears from fans, meteorologists, storm chasers on Twitter.

He wrote in his last tweet: “11:40 am. Pounding. CRASHING. Boards prying off windows. We’re moving children to a safe space, wrapping them in blankets. 969 mg. #DORIAN.”

Minutes before, he wrote: “11:15 am. 978 mb & falling fast. Just outside eyewall, but winds will damaging. Holed up with six others in concrete room with chairs against the door. #DORIAN.”

But after two days of being incommunicado, some began to fear for the worst.

AccuWeather’s Reed Timmer asked on Monday night: “Has anyone heard from @iCyclone yet? He road out Hurricane Dorian at a school in Marsh Harbour.”

My first question would be, “Has ANYONE tweeted from there?”

When I looked this morning, the Freeport newspaper had not posted anything since Friday (or was it Saturday?) Aug 30.

The rule of modern editing is if it passes spell check then it’s good to go.

Handheld, waterproof, text to satellite anywhere on the globe. Unit cost is about $300 new, $30 bucks a month for service. Contains an SOS function. If you are going into harms way off the grid, these are a must.

“Josh Morgerman hasn’t been heard from on Twitter for two days”

>Maybe he’s drunk.<

IMHO, you are bitter, evil, hateful ruin of a human.

You would think a hurricane raider would be smart enough to evacuate the children to somewhere safe. Too much of an ego?
