Lived in Corpus Christi for many years. Evacuated only once and it was because of hype.
IF I LIVED on a barrier island, I’d get out of there, though.
The wind alone is frightening. Those kids will be terrified. Sad.
Yea, Lock them up in the local jail!
Dumb-asses. And when they die, you know they will blame Trump
After they’re dead, they can blame him all they want.
MSNBC via Twitter? Desparate?
I can’t tell if you are being sarcastic or not. If you are serious, then I hope that you are right.
When crocodiles and snakes start filling the rising waters I hope she has a plan.
As per the video, she lives in a brick house 8 miles inland....so she’s obviously safe from the threat of high winds and catastrophic flooding. /s
This is child abuse........rescue the children......leave Katy to fend for herself
Lived in Florida for almost 30 years, been though several hurricanes including Andrew.
...
I know people who survived the eye of Andrew. They had interesting stories to tell, like roofs blowing off, windows breaking and hiding under mattresses, but they were all uninjured.
Then there’s the people who end up in the ER because they fell off a ladder while putting up plywood.
Exactly.
I told my wife I’m waiting for the emotional threads to hit decrying price increases for gas, food and generators which are absolutely necessary during a natural disaster.
Take it from someone who grew up on the gulf coast. Within a few hours of that hurricane striking, they won't be able to rescue anybody.
She’s an extremely attractive woman ... I guess that explains it ...
Money quote: "It isn't that the wind is blowing, it's what the wind is blowing."
You didn’t answer my question. Which suggests to me that you have never experienced the effects of high winds. Irma sent winds to 85 mph in my area of Florida last year and I can assure you that is as much as I ever want to experience. Also, most don’t take into account hurricanes have the nasty habit of throwing tornadoes around indescrimenantly and without warning.
Can't fix stupid.
That is a beautiful classic photo.
It will be the model for statues of the four, titled...
Late Democratic N.C. Mother and her four daughters defying Mother Nature.
The ultimate child abuse?
...if the authorities don't intervene.
Volvo.....Bwaahahahaha!!
I have stayed at the Atlantic Beach Doubletree many times.
It is Oceanfront. Do you believe for a minute that it will stay unguarded? No it will not.
Power might go out and first floor flooded but that thing isn’t going anywhere.
If you design and build a building that will withstand 200 mph winds, I guess that’d be strength in numbers.
Unfortunately, there are many homes described as “Brick” which are nothing more than standard frame homes with brick veneer fronts over the wall sheathing much the same place that siding would enclose.
In hurricanes, the damage generally starts at uplift on roofing/roof sheathing or at gable ends. Once the structure envelope is compromised, anything can follow.
