Of course we believe that, but the media will thank someone else...
And it worked........ Even so this was not a storm to ignore. They said from the beginning it was a "water storm" more than anything else.... once they saw how slow it would move across the coast. And that is exactly what it has been...streets flooding...ocean surges etc. Falling trees and limbs on an already saturated ground.
I also tend to believe the many prayers that it would weaken and spare the coast were answered.....and all are grateful it was not near what might have otherwise been possible.
More people die from floods than any other weather event.
However as someone that's lived in hurricane territory all my life, I knew this would be a dud as far as the wind goes, and that it was being overhyped.

“Even so this was not a storm to ignore.”
Absolutely not; my town had one of the NJ fatalities. We have a lot of power out, and the NJ shore had pieces of the boardwalk floating around in the street. They had bad beach erosion as well.
We’d better start praying about TD 12.

I’m hoping it’s just indigestion that’s causing a serious nagging at my gut when I look at this thing on sattelite!
