I've seen North Atlantic Waves break over a flight deck. I think it was in late 1979 we were about 500 miles from one and it wasn't no picnic even on a carrier.

Actually there's a place in Norfolk up in the tip of Ocean view created by a hurricane the name escapes me now. With natural warm sea currents, The swamps of the coast, and Chesapeake Bay feeding the storm, and the Arctic front moving down pushing warm air into it, that was just a perfect storm. I'm near Knoxville. Mt LeConte got over 32 inches of snow from this. Temps in Knoxville dropped over 30 degree high in a day.

I feel bad for the ones suffering through it. Not even East Tennessee is exempt from catastrophic floods and my parents live about 25 feet elevation from a creek bottom. They've been lucky and they understood the risk.

People scream Global Warning and man caused climate change and forget relative recent history in the 1800's where the nation had no summer due to a distant volcano. Now that is a serious threat science and planners need to work on and plan national survivability for rather than this insane junk science. The natural disasters will always be worse.

You’re darn right their close if their near first or second creek. If they live near Little River it has been a bear of late, just wait until 3ft of snow comes rushing down.

Go ahead and take a new trip up top, it’s quite beautiful this time of year.

Global Warming is nothing more than diversion of taxpayer funds to make politicians rich and powerful. Meh.

Get ready for one heck of a snowy winter.

Stay safe.
