My thoughts and prayers for those in the path of Milton, but living in the Gulf of Mexico area there is always the threat of hurricanes.

History is full of horrible hurricanes before this global warming narrative became a democrat talking point, such as the Gavelston 1900 storm and Camille in 1969.

At least with today's technology we can warn people and save lives.

>> He said he blames global warming and climate change for the increase in extreme weather.

However did I know that that line was coming??!?

Unless FEMA has been weaponized against certain Americans.

Denver used to be under an ocean. Does anyone think one single solitary thing could have been done by humans to change that ocean disappearing?

Exactly...these people have an agenda and it has nothing to do with MMGW. I don’t doubt his sincerity in the force of this storm, but let’s leave the global warming stuff out of it.

“It has dropped fifty millibars, in ten hours” he said, choking up in the process.

I remember Camille very well. Got married (first time) about two weeks after in Waveland MS. Yeah, it was nasty.

My sister-in-law in the Brandon area says the weather is just beautiful at present. For anyone who has been through a hurricane, you know how this works. It’s likely where the saying, “the lull before the storm” comes from.

I’m beginning to think it was a mistake to have all of these wet poofters acting as “authoritative voices” in so many areas of endevor.

Hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, sunamies, killing heat, killing cold, the earth is still a dangerous place. Prayers up for all in the path of this weeks tragedy.

The current composite track has Milton coming directly over my house. Fortunately I am not right on the coast, but about 50 miles inland from Tampa. I am staying put, but expect power to go out, maybe for days. When Hurricane Ian came pretty close, I had to use my chain saw to clear my driveway of a large oak tree that was uprooted before I could leave my house.

"Strengthening"

Reality = weakening but the msm/dems always inverse the truth for the cause.

Turning out to be a very typical hurricane that instantly weakens upon landfall. The people of Tampa and surrounding are quite familiar with it. Newcomers to FL from NY might panic from the msm drama and clog I-75 because FL is about to disappear.

i dunno...you gotta be pretty dumb to die in a hurricane. Theres like days of advanced warnings, everybody knows whats coming. What happened in North Carolina is different, that came out of nowhere. But as for staying on the coastline with a hurricane coming...sorry,just plain stupid.

It’s weakening as predicted. Now they predict it’ll speed up.
They say it’ll hit as a 3. Storm surges will be big.

I'm about 20 miles east of Tampa along the I4 corridor. We are 150 feet or so above sea level so storm surge won't be a problem unless Noah is somehow involved. TV coverage on Milton is good, but constant and often dramatic and it gets a bit tiresome of being told "You're this close to dying!!".

My house is concrete block built in 1955. It survived hurricane Donna and everyone that's come through since. We've done all our preps. I'm an old guy, pretty much past my biblical "use by" date. So, I'm not going to worry about it too much.

There is some shear on the north side of the storm.
How much that effects it is a question.
