HURRICANE HELENE LIVE THREAD
9/25/2024 | By Laz A. Mataz

Posted on 09/25/2024 2:03:48 AM PDT by Lazamataz

This is the live thread dedicated to Hurricane Helene and the people in the path of it. I am one such person, though I am far inland in North Georgia.

News reports state that this is likely to be one of the most explosive hurricanes in hurricane history.

If I cannot participate at some point, that is because my power went out.

I wish everyone good luck, and please stay safe!

Indeed. It was a rough two years! I installed the hurricane shutters myself...two floors and some 10-foot windows.

All those WINGNUTS! YIKES.

Prediction: It’s going to hit land hard, then piddle out fast.

Several deaths occur across north MS, north AL and TN, and GA every year as Hurricane remnants cross those states.

Flooding usually is not catastrophic away from the coastal zones, but falling trees kill drivers and passengers . Subsequent power outages take longer to recover since crews are spread out fixing local outages, but many have been staged to help the coastal zones get basic power back.

I was supposed to have a Zoom meeting with one of the Orlando SeaWorld mimes today.

LAZ: I'll bite. What the hey does this mean?

================

Sorry about that. It's early here in Colorado and I haven't had any coffee, so I tend to be more ditzy and "random" than usual. I'm producing a documentary about a famous (social media) Mime who works at SeaWorld. Very excited to officially launch it today, but I forgot about the hurricane down there.

One should always have an open and clean mime.

A mime is a terrible thing to waste!

I must ask. During a Zoom (on-line) business meeting with a mime in Orlando, should all attendees mute their microphones?

Or only the ones not speaking when they make their part of the presentation?

Sighhhhh. I had that coming. 😜 I'm going to go retreat behind my invisible glass wall now.
